Reply to comment by Auzaro in MBTA to close part of Orange Line to work on slow zones it said were eliminated, but weren’t, during full shutdown by ik1nky
Ideally, I think all major US cities should limit motor vehicles down to emergency and service (distribution, business, cabs,...) only. Open it up to pedestrian walkways and improved, expansive modes of mass transport. Watching Star Trek in the 60's had an impact on my visions.

Oh, you're asking for the impossible. But wouldn't that be something?

Never thought I'd see /r/boston upvote anti-car agenda
Last I remember being on here, people were downvoting someone suggesting more people take bikes to work because "we're not all 20 year olds" and "some of us can't show up to work sweaty"

It's been a few decades since I was in my 20's, and I never want to arrive anywhere sweaty, but I've always lived my life -to the best of my ability - thinking 7 generations in advance. I'm not anti-car so much as I am wanting cities to be more forward-thinking and find alternate methods of travel within their borders. Unlike rural areas dependent on individual modes of transportation, cities, by their very compact nature, can make major adjustments in their methods.
