If you’re a regular Streetsblog reader, you probably have a pretty good idea that America has so many “crumbling roads and bridges,” as U.S. politicians are so fond of pointing out. But if you need a quick explainer on how mass automobility helped create a road network we simply can’t afford to maintain — not to mention so dangerous it feels like we’ll never get to Vision Zero — look no further than the latest Streetcraft video, or send it to a friend who hasn’t gotten the message yet.

Bonus: this one has some of the best 101-level instructions we’ve seen for getting involved reshaping your local transportation network.
