After the last episode, I was taken to task by software developer, founding member of the Denver Bicycle Lobby and creator of the website called NoSquish.com Rob Toftness for my comments about the desire of city planners and leaders to make it so inconvenient to drive a car in those areas that you won’t do it anymore. I asked Rob to be on the show and he agreed to give us his perspective on how cities are changing into biking cities. Also, who pays if you crash a car while on a test drive?

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to live, eat and breathe hotdogs for a full year? How about what it would be like to drive and tour with the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile? I invited Katie Ferguson, also known as Ketchup Katie and Rachel Aul, aka Relish Rachel, two of the Oscar Mayer Hotdoggers who drive the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile across America. Airlines are dropping routes in anticipation of not seeing passengers for a long time. What if you could change the traffic lights from red to green but there is a catch. Some drivers license pictures are bad and some are non existent. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.

What will traffic look like post covid-19? Will it be worse or better than before? How many people will return to transit and how many will stay away? I talk with Will Barbour, research scientist for the Institute for Software Integrated Systems at Vanderbilt University about his study called, THE REBOUND: HOW COVID-19 COULD LEAD TO WORSE TRAFFIC. (Link to the study is below) Also, BMW is making you buy a subscription to use the cool gadgets already installed in their cars. And Germany has an interesting way to get people to wear masks on their transit system. All that and more on the Driving You Crazy Podcast.
