    Nothing wholesome about this obsequious subservience to cars.

    Wholesome would be reclaiming the streets for people.

      The same people usually do the same while driving, like stopping very cleanly and making eye contact to make the pedestrian feel safe. Or being quick, polite, and clear when at the store checkout

      It’s a people pleaser thing, not a ‘subservient to cars’ thing
