It's incredible how much space is given to a few people in motor vehicles vs so many more people on foot or wheels. It's a vast inequity.

Nowhere is this more stark than #ShibuyaCrossing; the world's busiest pedestrian crossing with as many as 3,000 people crossing at a time. Compared to around 12 cars fromone direction of the junction in one sequence. #Urbanism #CitiesForPeople

@velobetty I think it's fair to mention that many of those pedestrians are tourists who like to participate in the hustle and bustle themselves.
It is partly a self-perpetuating phenomenon.

@Fruttekoek Then give them more space to hustle and bustle. Doesn't change the point at all.
