@tiaxanderson A better solution in the US is to require the cities to include sidewalks. Seriously, there are cities where there aren't sidewalks in the residential areas, and it's been proven there's a correlation between the age of a neighborhood and the obesity rate for this very reason. Any 'murrican moving to Italy gorges themselves on pasta but loses weight because for perhaps the first time, they are walking everywhere. It's also why NYC is so thin compared to any other city in the country, because of all that walking.
