Hi from Mexico City.

Do you think you are living a "cars nightmare", then believe when I say this: "Never come here pals!".

Civic/Vial culture is absolutely absent. Public transport is a surreal dream, I would say... an adventure (not an enjoyable one).

"Urban planning" is not a known term for people on charge.

We are a troubled city in a troubled world.

I bike commuted in Mexico City for a year and it was excellent. Also, the public transit is great; it's just that lines 1, 2, and 3 of the Metro and 1 of the Metrobus are badly overcrowded and need to be expanded with quadruple express tracks and higher frequency automatic train control systems.
