    Yep I agree - It’s definitely possible for the US to shift away from it, some cities have even been transforming some of their busy central roads into pedestrianised boulevards (such as times square in NY, and a couple others I can’t remember off the top of my head) and from an outsiders perspective been successful.

    The difficulty is mainly going to be places like Culver City where some just don’t get that cars don’t scale well in dense urban areas like cities - they’ve voted to remove a 2 year old bike lane just to get back an additional driving lane. That’s just going to move most of the bike riders back into their cars, filling that brand new driving lane (and the other existing driving lanes) with traffic that previously didn’t exist. Hopefully over time positive changes will return though!
