Itās NOT a cityās responsibility to size their city (its streets, drive aisles, parking spaces etc) to fit your purchase decision. Rational purchase decisions are made factoring in whether the thing u buy āwill fit.ā There should be simple, practical consequences when the thing you buy DOESNāT fit.

As our kids go

, never forget that we ARE the traffic that weāre afraid of. If more kids walked, biked or rode transit to school, it would erase a massive number of car trips each day, and our kids would be safer, healthier and better at school. HT Ian Lockwood. Spread the word.
