Bicycles predate automobiles by several decades and asphault was invented for bicycle use. Also pneumatic tires. Pedestrians had the right-of-way everywhere in every road until the oligarchs invented "jaywalking."
Automobiles were forced on the public, their popularity was manufactured. People don't even notice how unhappy and stressed out they are when they drive the brainwahing is that effective.
I notice how unhappy and stressed I am when I drive.
Then again, I’m in the city and there’s few things in the world more stressful than driving in virtually stand still traffic in nyc. I don’t mind long drives in the country. In fact, I love them.
But I’m much, much happier taking public transportation. I never want to get a car again. I have friends here that drive exclusively and I just don’t understand it.
Driving down a road in the countryside is really quite underrated... But it also wouldn't be affected by changing urban planning to include less cars.
