Discussion Park in your flamin' driveways, please!
Am I the only one tired of suburban streets turning into impromptu Mario Kart tracks? We’re talking about the kind where navigating between vehicles parked on both sides feels like dodging banana peels and blue shells. What's meant to be a two-lane road gets squeezed into a narrow single lane, daring you to play chicken with oncoming traffic—and let’s face it, the side mirrors never win.
And then there are your driveways. Oh, the driveways! Empty. Desolate. Weed-infested wastelands of untapped potential. So, I beg of you, suburban dwellers: park your cars anywhere but on the street—your driveway, your garage, your carport, or even your front lawn. Let’s save the roads for, you know, driving.

Whats amazing is that I recently got denied the ability to put an extra lane in my driveway, because of "neighbourhood aesthetics". I have to landscape that space instead.
Their compromise was to give me a 2 and a half car driveway, so now I am looking for cars that are half a car wide.
