[quote=Anonymous]This thread seems insanely mean. OP has a point: trails/roads that require cars and humans to share the same path do not feel safe for pedestrians. Those of you who are rightfully pointing out that accessibility in this space relies on cars are correct, but you are also equating the experience of a wheelchair (small, generally moves at walking speed, not dangerous to pedestrians) with the use of a car here. Whatever your use of a car (lazy or unable to move regularly), it does not change that a lot of people are bad drivers and once they’re in their car, they’re the king of the road. A ring road would indeed be a better design, but then more space has to be given over to parking accessibility. A tram would be great. [/quote]
