Joe, keep in mind that Brian also prefers driving an automobile into Manhattan on Sundays as opposed to riding public transportation. One of his excuses was that it's more convenient if he's shopping, and has large or cumberosome purchases. If someone has a car, isn't it easier to drive to the suburbs where there are acres upon acres of ample free parking, as opposed to endlessly circling the block waiting for a good space, or getting tickets for triple parking on 8th Avenue somewhere? Brian also mentioned that he loves to drive. Maybe in a demolition derby, because that's what I compare driving in New York to (or any big city, for that matter). If someone loves to drive, they should be driving on a smooth winding and hilly country road, like you see in car commercials on TV. Not on Henry Hudson Parkway, a road poorly designed for anything bigger than a motorcycle, or on city avenues swerving around taxis, potholes, gypsy cabs, and buses and slamming on the brakes when the traffic lights turn red every other block. |
