    Actually this is a great analogy.

    The fact that everyone is using cars now make everyone more miserable. It’s impacting health, mental health, maintaining car infrastructure bankrupt cities …

    Children cannot play in the streets anymore which is impacting their development, they have less social interaction with other kids …

      How old are you and this guy. I’m old and people have always used cars my whole life close to 50/years. We played in the streets and when a car came we moved then continued. No big deal. Now people seem t be less patient and in a hurry now so they might just hit the kids.

        I’m not old enough to have know life without cars, I trust the scientists that studied the impact of car centric infrastructure on people life.
