Anne Clark+FollowSelf-driving car gets stuck on Phoenix train tracksA self-driving Waymo car in Phoenix made a wild mistake—turning onto brand-new train tracks and heading straight for an oncoming train! The passenger bailed out just in time, and the car kept rolling until rail staff had to step in, causing a tense few minutes for everyone nearby. Even though no one was hurt and delays were minimal, this close call really highlights how much work is left for autonomous vehicles to safely handle unexpected situations. With more self-driving cars hitting our streets, how comfortable do you feel sharing the road with them? #Transportation #Phoenix #SelfDrivingCars00Share
Michael Smith+FollowUber’s 4:30 a.m. Fail Cost Her a JobImagine trusting Uber to get you to work before sunrise, only for the app to leave you hanging—and your boss doesn’t care why you’re late. More and more people are finding out the hard way that early morning rides are a total gamble now. With fewer drivers and longer waits, that “on the way” notification means nothing if you’re stuck watching the clock and risking your paycheck. Anyone else feeling like ride-hailing is just not reliable anymore? #Transportation #UberFail #CommuteStruggles00Share
umccall+FollowToronto Snowstorm Chaos: Schools Shut Down!Toronto just got buried under a wild snowstorm—think 30 cm of snow, schools closed (yes, even universities!), and traffic totally wrecked. Highways are shut, cars are stuck in ditches, and even the airport is a mess. If you’re in southern Ontario, it’s basically a snow day for everyone. Police are begging people to stay home. When’s the last time you saw Toronto THIS snowed in? #Transportation #TorontoSnowstorm #SchoolClosures00Share
Kevin Nicholson+FollowSpeed cameras now ticketing on CO 119Those new speed cameras on the Diagonal Highway between Boulder and Longmont aren’t just sending warnings anymore—now, if you’re caught going 10+ mph over the limit, you’ll get a $75 ticket in the mail. This change is all about making the busy CO 119 corridor safer, especially in the work zone where speeding has been a big problem. Automated enforcement means fewer police stops and, hopefully, fewer crashes. If this is your daily route, it’s definitely time to double-check your speed. How do you feel about these cameras—helpful or just another hassle? #Transportation #Boulder #Longmont00Share
Lauren Cooper+FollowCharlotte commuters face major I-485 delaysMorning traffic on I-485 in north Charlotte came to a standstill after a tragic crash shut down all outbound lanes for hours. Crews worked through the morning to clear debris, finally reopening the road just before noon. For anyone who relies on this stretch of highway, today was a reminder of how quickly our routines can be disrupted. It’s a tough day for the community, especially for those directly affected. How do you handle unexpected traffic chaos, and what changes would make our roads safer? Let’s talk about it. #Transportation #Charlotte #I48510Share
Traci Keller+FollowColumbia’s Route B could see big changes soonMajor growth is on the horizon for businesses along Route B in Columbia, and the city is looking at building a new crossroad and adding a traffic signal to keep up. With companies like Schneider Electric and JBS Foods planning to add hundreds of jobs over the next few years, traffic could get a lot heavier—especially during afternoon rush hour. The proposed “Collector Road” would connect key spots and help everyone get around more smoothly. What do you think—will this new road make your commute easier, or are there other traffic issues you’d like to see fixed first? #Transportation #ColumbiaMO #RouteB00Share
Lauren Cooper+FollowRed light confusion at Wilson & ClarkA CTA bus blocking the view at Wilson & Clark led to a jaw-dropping moment: a driver in a Toyota 4Runner rolled right through a red light, apparently assuming it was safe just because the bus went ahead. The dashcam footage shows her slow roll into the intersection, followed by an apologetic wave—like that makes it okay! In Chicago, red light cameras mean a $100 ticket, but this kind of move could easily end in something much worse. Ever found yourself in a similar situation? How do you handle blocked signals in busy intersections? #Transportation #ChicagoTraffic #RedLight00Share
ywheeler+FollowClemson’s Douthit Hills: Big changes aheadMajor construction at Clemson’s Douthit Hills means fewer parking spots for now, but big gains are coming. By 2027, the new expansion will offer more housing, a faculty apartment, and new spaces for learning and collaboration. Parking is tight during construction, but the university promises no long-term loss for students—plus, a new six-level parking deck is on the way. With nearly 7,000 new students this year, these upgrades aim to keep campus life vibrant and accessible. How do you feel about the trade-off between short-term inconvenience and long-term campus growth? #Transportation #Clemson #CampusLife00Share
umccall+FollowBig changes coming to Barney’s Busy CornersBarney’s Busy Corners, that famously confusing six-way intersection on the Akron-Cuyahoga Falls border, is finally getting a much-needed update. New signals, controls, and signs are on the way, aiming to make daily drives less stressful for everyone who passes through. This is part of a $14 million investment in local transportation, including new buses and a roundabout in Stow. If you’ve ever gritted your teeth navigating this spot, relief could be coming in the next couple of years. What do you think—will these changes make a real difference, or is a total redesign still needed? #Transportation #Akron #CuyahogaFalls00Share
