LOL!  :-D L.A. is a city built on the automobile in the heydays of its' rapid growth and expansion of the freeway system in the mid 20th century. On average, there are 2.5 cars per person in L.A. and the vast metro area connected by freeways, but you have bicyclists and pedestrians as well a local transit bus system for non-motorists. How would a non-motorists make it in a city like L.A.? :hmmm: Anyway I don't drive (I'm age 33) and rides my bike quick to work, while my wife does have a drivers' license.
