Almost like how most of those streets were originally designed, before cars were invented
Car with horse existed when theses road were designed.
It's even a paved road, I find it a bit sad they tore down the pavement. There is even a photo somewhere on internet where you can see a dead horse with kids playing next to it as car pass by.
Exemple of a photo 100year ago in Paris:
Pedestrian can walk on pavement.
I'd like to remind that cars were banned in center of Rome, because there was too much cars.
And I'm talking about the Rome of 2000 years ago.
They might have not suffered the noise of cars as much as today, but accordig to that photo they did constantly suffer the noise of lowercase a everywhere
A horse carriage is very loud on pavement.
Also lots of horseshit everywhere.
If this norm would be brought today we would have c/fuckhorse.
Ahem, maybe another name...
