It’s all been downhill since the demise of the pop-up headlight vehicle-free city.
I’m having a bit of laugh, but in all seriousness, I should be able to walk downtown without risk of being hit by a car. I bought a reflective cap after a near miss. It was not the last. I may have to get a vest next. I work and live here. I shouldn’t have to dodge traffic.
Thankfully where I live we have really good drivers and I have never even come close to being hit. I still strongly agree as there is nowhere in my city where you can escape all the noise created by cars; Just a deafening, relentless drone punctuated by tinnitus inducing horns if you are unfortunate enough to be on the same block as the person that just had to honk at the person that waited 0.1s to go after the light turned green. Hell I can even hear it when I am hiking in the mountains.
Oh yeah, I was on my bike and got hit by a VW Transporter not paying attention while turning at a light. That was fun. Now I live where two or three of the most dangerous roundabouts in the country exist, so that’s fun too.
