At least until war is declared, gas prices spike, and suddenly they want public trans and to use scooters.
I wish!
When gas prices hit $3.80 under Obama here in the Midwest, I just remember vividly the buses being full to bursting... only time that's ever happened in my adult life.
I see people idling their cars all the time, here, despite the current price of fuel (in Denmark). They just don't care. It's a problem for politicians to solve, in their mind, so they just vote for the first asshole who says he'll solve it and then they whine on facebook about bicyclists on the roads.
same here in Australia, so it's a human stupidity thing, rather then a national thing. I had expected better if Denmark
NSW made it illegal to sit idling years ago, apparently to address the noise problem
