Winter Walking and Cycling

[danbrotherston]

There's no way there is sufficient garage capacity to store everyone's cars in substantial portions of the city, though I don't know the numbers. Looking at Google maps should be illustrative.

I mean I would like it to be even more inconvenient to own a car and I personally would be fine with walking 30 minutes to reach my car (because I would never think of car commuting) but that's not where society is at.

The lack of garage capacity is a result of breaking the market on garage space by providing some people free storage on the streets.

As for "where we are as a society", I don't disagree, the transition is hard, I'm talking only of the destination. The frustrating part is few of us have even agreed on that destination, let alone figure out a route.

But we are quickly reaching a point where the trip is going to be far more jarring than it could have been if we'd faced reality sooner.
