Why is #drivernotcar preferred? Doesn’t it spotlight individual responsibility over systems that need fixing? In an analogous situation the gun lobby says ‘people kill people’ to minimise the role of the gun. Why minimise the role of the car?

I’ve never understood this. Isn’t this akin to pro gun activists saying ‘guns don’t kill people?’. The systemic issue is the car, focusing on the individual downplays the importance of systemic change.

This isn’t just visuals or perception though. Rough sleeping is objectively much worse for the person and for society than broader homelessness.

Every quiet street in inner Melbourne with a wide median should be made one-way to create a mini-park. So much space is being wasted!

Won’t this just induce demand and increase overall costs ?

Locals worried that schools will be overwhelmed but there’s fewer kids than ever in Brighton and schools are closing from lack of students. At a certain point you have to assume these arguments are not in good faith.
