If a town is easier to walk in than to drive in, I will walk. I have never lived in such a place, so I drive.

- maccard 4y agoNot sure where you are, but a large amount of places are easier to walk than drive in. I live in Edinburgh, and driving through the city, (and even worse, parking in the city) is an absolute nightmare. Walking or taking a bus is a no brainer. Similarly, Glasgow (less so), Dublin, and most major European cities are all significantly more difficult to navigate by car.

- Huh1337 4y agoI live in a major EU city and even though they really try hard to make driving unbearable, it's still the best option in many cases. And you don't have any other option if you're going to a less major town nearby - even with worlds' best public transport infrastructure, it's still not good enough. Makes me very sceptical about mass transit.
- arethuza 4y agoEdinburgh is exceptional though - as well as being one of the most beautiful cities in the world it also has a fairly compact city centre with pretty good public transport links. Hard to believe that we almost got Glasgow style inner city motorways: https://www.gcat.org.uk/blog/?p=682 https://www.gcat.org.uk/blog/?p=682 NB I lived in the centre of Edinburgh for over 30 years before moving across to Fife and commuting in by train - which is generally a pretty pleasant experience. Edit: I very rarely drive into Edinburgh - its generally a nightmare.
