    it’s not like having 4 wheels and a cab is somehow magically evil, the problem with cars is that they’re too big and go too fast, and that people expect them to always get priority.

    Here in sweden a lot of landlord companies have started using what is effectively more robust golf carts as work vehicles, and they don’t even really feel that out of place on a combined pedestrian/bicycle path.

    Even just removing the massive bulge at the front of a standard car helps a lot, that suddenly brings the driver closer to everything and means their natural instincts to be careful engage more.
