Greetings from Athens, Greece,

A city with no sidewalks, no bicycle routes, lots of car traffic everywhere and awful public transport.

I was walking with my sister today and she found me walking in the middle of the street dangerous. So, I explained that this is my way of fucking with drivers. They have to slow down and wait for me to make way for them to pass me.

I usually do this in the neighbourhood streets where drivers usually are not speeding, so I will be able to dodge them in time if I need to.

All this discussion got me wondering what else I could be doing.

I was wondering what other methods people are employing. So, how are you fucking cars? Are you organized? Are you a rogue individual?

That sounds like an incredibly silly thing to do. You are more likely to get yourself injured than have any affect on the prevalence of cars.

Not really trying to make a change, I am just pissed.

To be honest, I never really had anything close to a scare. Children could be walking around, and thankfully drunk driving is not that common here.
