Impact analysis
You're probably spending way too much on gas and car maintenance just to get basic things done.
The roughly one-third of residents who cannot drive, plus pedestrians and cyclists.
Anyone who wants to save money on gas, get some exercise, or just live in a neighborhood where they can safely walk to the store gets the short end of the stick.
