Car dependence. This is a Perth Western Australian story as well.
Once you see it, you can't unsee forced car dependency.
Cars have degraded our entire economy, environment, culture, and lives. Forced car dependency makes us poorer, less healthy, and less connected to our neighbors.
The first step of a cure is to recognize that we have a car problem.

It's the oligarchs, I tell you.
Guys, it's the oligarchs. If you want to blame someone for 2024, blame the oligarchs. Anyone telling you to blame someone else is part of the oligarchy. Dark money has been to blame since citizens united.

Preferential voting is way ahead of 1st past the post like USA & UK, but proportional voting is the fairest most democratic system.
This is how the Australian House of Representatives would look if we had Proportional voting.

3 near hits as a pedestrian, while walking on footpaths by car wearers running over curbs to avoid rear-ending other car wearers. And NO! we are not talking driveways or road intersections.
Never by a villainous cyclist. (Even though cyclists are allowed to ride on the footpath in my jurisdiction).
