While these calls for other metric are appropriate, I don't know why advocates are constantly dismissing the horrific quality of American drivers.
I am once again calling on all Americans to lose their driver licenses.
Everyone of you sucks at driving.
The highest density neighborhood in the Netherlands is the very Southern edge of The Hague, which is used for housing farm workers for Westland (which absolutely refuses to build workforce housing.)
