If only we really COULD have a car-free day; it would be a great start anyway. Cartoons #4 to 7 would be funnier if there weren’t daily news reports of cars/trucks/buses crashing into houses, laundromats, liquor stores, restaurants and more!
It should be the kind of thing you’d hear about maybe a few times per year, barring ISIS and other intentional killings using vehicles. As far as high speed chases go that are still rampant in L.A., where’s the technology that would quickly disable the car putting everyone else at risk?! I’m sure there are drones that could do that, please. 2+ hours of this insanity every time at THIS late date? Oh hell no!
