No matter how few cars there are, a pickup system for people in cars is still going to exist in any responsible society. Almost every one of the schools in central London have school pickup lines, despite very few pupils, staff or anyone else arriving that way, because driving in central London is a nightmare and heavily discouraged

Yeah.... Because I was steel Manning this argument lol, not strawmanning it.

I was saying EVEN IF it were the case that we lived in an enlightened near carless society, there's going to be some people who arrive via car, and apparently having an organized and safe way to accomodate that is sacreliege here.

Ask yourself if you seriously think I was making the argument that, in America specifically, 95% of the time 95% of people are not using cars to arrive at school.

Then ask yourself, if you thought that was the argument I was making, are you mentally equipped to carry on this conversation.

Ford's a coward, he was talking a big game a few months ago about elbows up we're gonna cut off the power.

Now he backs down because dear leader didn't like his ad?

Yeah guys were already pretty sick of your bullshit but you can extra fuck off with this. We've stopped caring.

Let us know when orange fascist and the hairless cat Nazi are gone and you sort your fuckin country out and we can go back to being cordial

I live in the UK and walk my children to school every day. There is still a line for school pickup/drop-off because not everyone is so lucky.

This isn't even an American phenomenon.

Some amount of people will be driving cars to pickup and drop-off every day, even if it's minimized and even if it's not always the same people.

So it stands to reason they should do it in some kind of orderly fashion as dictated by the school for the safety of, get this, THE CHILDREN ARRIVING BY FOOT, BIKE OR BUS

How do you envision kids being picked up after school? Free for all?

Edit: yes I'm doubling down, the people in the replies are idiots.

Obviously walking, biking, or taking the bus is better. Let's assume that covers 95% of children 95% of the time.

Now what?

I was asking what to do WITH CARS that are picking up kids REGARDLESS OF THE FACT THAT ANOTHER KID MIGHT TKAE THE BUS
