Just to compare, this is the utopian dream for Toronto:
There are approx. 18 cars and trucks in that image.
They are taking up SIGNIFICANTLY more space, and are causing traffic.
Still, we keep saying, "give us more of this, please!".
Insanity or stupidity?

I saw a YouTube comment on a cyclists video claiming Toronto to be "the anti-car capital of the world". If toronto is an anti-car city, i would hate to see how a "pro-car" city looks to them....
I saw a YouTube comment
Those are almost as shit as Facebook comments.
I saw a video on YouTube calling road diets "The latest socialist assault on our freedoms!" It was from a semi-major news outlet too.
LOL. Putting in a bike lane makes any city "anti-car", if your only perspective is seeing the city through your metal cage 😂
But really, a pro car city is probably 20 lanes for every road with no sidewalks at all. Everyone is miserable, and traffic doesn't move. 🤭
I unironically live in a place with no sidewalks, it sucks so much
the only place where no side walk is acceptable is where there is a dirt or gravel road instead of a paved road.
I call those places "hostile to pedestrians".
We have a few areas in my municipality that lack sidewalks, and they are in places where people work or take their kids to dance lessons. 😵
