One man's "placed in designated spots" is another man's "dumped on the side of the road"

I honestly think we are just used to seeing idle cars all over the place that we don't "notice" them. There's no reason scooters won't be able to "blend in" in the same way over time.

In my fantasy world, we go the opposite direction and start realizing that all that idle car space could be used for parkland, housing, storefronts, bike lanes, miles-long slip'n'slides, pretty much _anything_ but wasted space in high-land-value areas.

How do you get there without having scooters or similar available everywhere instead?

Gotta solve the point-to-point problems of mass transit if you want to kill demand for cars.

How awesome would miles-long slip'n'slides be in hilly San Francisco? Bay to Breakers would never be the same.
