      At least until war is declared, gas prices spike, and suddenly they want public trans and to use scooters.

          I see people idling their cars all the time, here, despite the current price of fuel (in Denmark). They just don’t care.

              NSW made it illegal to sit idling years ago, apparently to address the noise problem
