Two thirds of the city can have cars parked off street and double parked right across from each other and still have enough space for people to drive by. That is too wide in my mind, it encourages speeding at a subconscious level. I've noticed this tendency for vehicles to be stopped in very inconvenient, like right at an intersection instead of a few meters back to allow for people to drive around and properly stop at a stop sign or attempt to cross an intersection at rush hour when it is obvious that there won't be enough space and will block cross traffic, but these are things that we can slowly improve by actually enforcing the laws already on the books or designing streets in a way that nudge against that behavior. Widening highways doesn't improve throughput.
