    I walk 3.3 miles to and from work, 3 days a week, takes less than an hour, even if I had a car I’d do that over a 45 minute drive, thas crazy business

      This doesn’t really look like a place with great infrastructure for walking, though 😅

        In the middle of the street? Sure. But best part of Lambofeeties is their ability to go places cars typically can’t, like the sidewalk or the side of the road

          That’s great in walkable areas (which I want more of), but there are some parts of America that are designed for cars only. There is no sidewalk, and the lanes go all the way to the edge of the road which may have a fence or wall for some sections.

          The US has gone so far into the “freedom” of cars that they’re taking away the freedom to use alternatives.

            Oh, trust me, I know. My mornin walk to work has plenty of stretches where I am in the middle of a, thankfully not too busy at the time, road, but still, faced with a 45 minute drive or a 55 minute walk on the road, imma inconvenience others and play on the fact that no one wants to hit the 6’ guy in a kilt as much as I can. Far from perfect, and I have to keep me head on a swivel, but yeah
