I agree that most of the people who make these kinds of complaints are just anti-car.

I'm not. But I do like to be able to bike or walk when I feel like it w/o seriously risking my life.

And I think our road systems should not be designed in such a way as to prevent anyone without a car from getting where they need to go.

"But I do like to be able to bike or walk when I feel like it w/o seriously risking my life."

I agree with you there. I don't know of too many places where it is safe to do that, though, given the number of crazy drivers these days.
