Even people in some French cities don't get it. Here in Toulon (southern France, between Nice and Marseille) it's hard to get the point across. Lack of public transit, lackluster bike infrastructure, and decades of car-first policy have left people without a positive vision. For them it's all just about "how do we get more parking into the city?" and "There are too many traffic jams, we need more lanes."

To an outsider (I lived in Grenoble before) it's so obvious that I joined some mobility associations as soon as I moved here, and I wasn't even politicized about this before, nor was I in any real sense active in the associative milieu.
