    It’s Europe, not a fairy tale. We do in fact renovate and change our streets occasionally. A clear indicator are the fancy cut grey slabs and the metal disc. I can guarantee you those are not there since the time of horse and carriage. Also the red bricks would be waaay more worn down by now if they were that old.

    It’s not an old video game. They’re not immovable parts of the level design. You can likely move or bump them out of the way enough to pass through.

    Meanwhile right next to them is a huge metal box that stole 4 times as much sidewalk, transported half as many people and is literally un-moveable if you’re not in a heavy motorized vehicle.

    I find this post hilarious in a really sad and aggravating way.

    Everyone complains how the bikes block the path for pedestrians, strollers, wheelchairs. But pictured on this very same image is how the entire sidewalk is narrowed to make room for cars. That one car takes up twice as much space as those two bikes and likely transported half an many people. And if you’re on foot, in a wheelchair or pushing a stroller you can push the bicycles out of the way. You can’t push the car out of your way.
