Yes - it really is that car centric. We are unusual - we can walk to a grocery and to a major medical center. But those are 1-2 mile walks, and most people wouldn't even think of doing even that without a car.Originally Posted by lph
Heck, there have been stories about our schools not allowing kids to bike because of safety issues. It's very unusual for kids in my state to be able to walk or bike to school - generally, they are too far away.

I wonder if all the pushed back helmets on the kids was so they would photograph better.

That's the way I see a lot of kids wear them. I think it may just be really hard to fit kids - they fidget, they don't really care if it fits (just let me ride my bike!), they think helmets are dorky - (at least give me a cool color!)
