This might be an unpopular opinion, but the idea of a car-centric society has failed. Especially in deeply congested and populated city centers. It feels like complete mayhem; open spaces become parking lots, commutes become eternal, and lets not talk about the dangerous combo of cellphones and driving. More than 7,000 pedestrians die each year from car accidents. One in five children under the age of 15 killed in car crashes were pedestrians.

We've strived to this point of supposed progress, yet, its made us into a lazier, unhealthy society.

Don’t get me wrong, automobiles have obvious benefits, but why design entire communities solely around cars? The amount of usable space that could enrich culture, provide leisure or be used for community purposes is wasted to perpetuate the concrete jungle a lot of us live
