Quite thought-provoking,
Quite thought-provoking, thanks for sharing.
I seem to recall some places in the UK have tried changing road plus pavement into a single space and found that it does change priority: car drivers realise that they are guests in the space. Whether that continues long term is an open question.
One of the things I’d like to try is reversed priority at pedestrian crossings. Green man by default; cars and bikes have to press the button and wait.
