Car-centered road and sidewalk design is hostile to wheelchair users, people with sight impairments, children, old people on so many fronts:
- noise from vehicular traffic
- the right to progess impeded at every block by having to wait until someone drives their horseless carriage
- the danger of crossing because the licensing process for the self-propelled horseless buggies does not select only for the reasonable and sane
Motonormativity is a loss for everyone except car manufacturers and oil companies.
Even the suckers driving them are cheating themselves out of exercise and experiencing the world.
