Dutch style microcars are a greener and safer solution to physical disability and aging than full size full speed cars. Especially when you're talking about elderly people with deteriorating eyesight and slower reactions. Car dependency helps a precious few disabled people while leaving the rest of us up shit creek and contributing to the extinction of the human species. The transit and walkability movement has a solution for everyone.

    Yeah, cuz people don’t need to shop. Also, I’m sorry if people like my sibling fall into a ‘precious few’ but you’re gonna need to get everyone on board if you’re selling accessibility.

    Clearly.

    I don't know who told you that you couldn't, but you can park a microcar at a shop.

    People need space to put stuff, and there’s only so much that can be put into a dinky-ass microcar’s boot. Not to mention, people travel in groups too.

    I'm guessing it's about the same amount of space as in the rear basket of a bicycle? Because that's plenty of space if the shops are accessible to visit on a daily basis, which is the case in walkable neighbourhoods.
