If there's anything we should take from Japan, it's treating cars like second class citizens behind transit instead of the other way around. The cute tiny cars are more a side effect of that.

Or even, gasp, transit and walkability

Sure would be freaking nice. I very much wish cities were significantly more walkable and compact, and cars were reserved mainly for road trips!

Going anywhere feels like the traffic commute is a big unpleasant chunk of the day.
