The “what if you wanted to go to heaven, but god said ____” meme template, but here it says, “What if you wanted to walk to get groceries, but city planners said DRIVE”. The last panel is an image of a massive freeway full of cars.

    You ain’t walking it if there is a freeway between you and the store. Even in large cities, walkways that cross major highways are rare.

    Perfect example right here where I am. The nearest Del Taco is within a walkable distance; but it’s on the otherside of the freeway. There is no walkable crossing to get over there. I have to drive, despite it being hella stupidly close.

      Nobody said you have to walk across the freeway. In places like this there are plenty of stores on your side without having to walk far.
