I'll start with last point first. Square area is what the OP image referenced (length X width of space taken).
So if it's wrong for me to use it then it's wrong for the op too.
Cars gotta be parked... People have garages and carparks exist. We seen to manage that fine.
And for for done people with disabilities cars are the only way.
I'm short on time so I'll make this quick... As much as you can drag up edge cases where cars are bad, I could do the same about bikes... But the difference between the morons here and I, is that I'm not trying hard to shit on one mode of transport over another.
It might surprise you but for the most part cars and bikes co exist fine.
Whatever clown. Area is area. Not every car is an SUV like people here think. I never said storage specifically was an edge case but go ahead an twist my words.
We'd be fucked without cars, plain and simple.
Don't like cars? Prove it campaign for a better alternative. But no... You won't do that because your too busy during in cars that people rarely have a choice to avoid.
Like.. if everyone lived somewhere where there was a bus stop on every corner but decided not to use it then this com might have a fair case.
But that simply isn't true.
The fact that everyone here hates is that cars are are awesome. They really are.
Give me a more awesome option than a car to get to work and get around and I'll hand in my car tomorrow. And I mean it. I fucking love public transport. Nothing beats sitting on my ass with noise cancelling buds and having some quiet time while someone else drives the train.
Instead of making an ass out of yourself continuing together broken arguments and pointing to these giant mystical SUVs you reckon area a big deal (but in reality very few actually own) go campaign for a better alternative.
