Coming to answer after being woken up by a neighbour's after-party noise, after a few hours of inadequate sleep caused due to noise from said party. And it's half past ten. On top of that, I have had a bad sleep for the past 2 weeks due to continuous bombardment (no, that's just Diwali) for the past 2 weeks.

And even from the video, you may notice - It's less about cars, but that people are loud:

1. People like car go vroom vroom
2. People like farting motorcycles and most of them over here, buy non-farting motorbikes and get them modified to get them to fart. Same for farting cars. Only a few cars that fart by default. Mist of the farters are modded.
3. The horn problem is also more about people and less about traffic necessity. On top of that, the sound-proof cabins make it hard for car drivers to hear cycle bells. I recently got a near miss from that.
4. And guess what, that area also gets loud when there's a party
5. Tire noise, I'd rather have that. How else would I know when there is a car behind me, before they blast the horn? In fact, me detecting the car first, looking back to see their lane and giving way, has prevented a lot of potential horns. But yes, if the low sound roads and the porous roads that help in rainwater infiltration (causing groundwater replenishment and reducing sinkhole probability) are the same, then I would definitely be for it.

Air pollution:

Taken from 9:13 in the video.

• Roads have been pretty breathable ^[at least as long as you are only considering the vehicle smoke and not the smoke coming out of smouldering sticks in the rider's/driver's mouths] ever since Catalytic converters and I have been mostly fine, breathing heavily while running over 35.
• There is another kind of farters. The vehicles who don't get proper maintenance and start puffing white smoke, filling the road air with it, making me have to take a stop or hastily overtake them.

There is just one case, where I would look differently and that is the case of tuk-tuks and mopeds, which turns out to be out of necessity and lack of money. Because those have to be cheap, to cater to the requirement of the target customer, reduced noise comes lower in the list of priorities.

It's not trying to say either of them.

It's just guessing what word to say next, given the previous words in the context.

Had they just used some punctuation - "The press freedom group Reporters Without Borders on Thursday, announced", it would have made it easier to get. Even, "The press freedom group Reporters Without Borders, on Thursday, announced" would be doable.

How do these feel?

And gives some energy (and building material) in the process? Yeah, it's just kinda hard.

I used to say, "I don't like novels." until I read Foundation

You just gave 2 links to places on the internet where people have mentioned it.

So I just invented a game.
I kinda like it a bit.
Of course, I'm not going to tell you its name or its rules, or I will have mentioned it on the internet, which will make it a paradox.

Any chance you’re a lawyer?

Physicists come pretty close too, and guess where you are

Yeah, we are yet to make sure that the drones run on the same OS as the Teslas.

I get it. There's probably 100's of sites with you on them.

Ah, the ol' pronoun switcheroo
