CW for the link: death by vehicular violence
It was a bloody memorial day weekend in Cincinnati.
Even though the answer society needs to arrive at is banning cars, that reality seems so far away.
How realistic is it that we can start by banning these gigatrucks and SUVs from city streets where they simply don’t belong?
These kinds of vehicles are wholly unnecessary for the city. Using a big ass truck in the field makes sense, but lots of people in the city just buy them because they think that it makes them look badass.
I think we should start by establishing more car free zones in city centers, as well as redesigning the streets and sidewalks to give enough space for pedestrians and bikes to exist, instead of giving cars a sea of lanes that invite them to drive recklessly.
This is already happening in a lot of cities. Where I live is starting now, slowly but ey, they are doing cool stuff.
Sounds like a dream. Any progress is better than no progress haha. We should still push for more changes to be made.
Agree.
