a future politian?

there are cities that were designed by car lovers, people whose idea about going around town means you have your own vehicle at your doorstep and you are at the doorstep of your destination. public transport is only for the poor, so who cared!
the astonishing thing is that you would think there would be signs with directions, the names of the streets written big for people inside a car, the numbers on the streets big for the same purpose.... but no!
so you wonder, if everybody moves by car, who do they go from a to b when they don't know the way? well, the answer is simple: only people (a european capital!) who know this city live in it.
incongrous, but that's what local politians must think, otherwise it's a joke!!!

but it's not only that, you arrive home at a perfectly reasonable time like 10.30pm, you look for a place to park your car...you keep looking.....and a little more....and after 20 min of futile search, you decide to park it in a place where there is a big sign, warning naive parkers like me that at 7am they are doing road work and so you better leave or you shall face a big fat fine
and there i was, at 6.50am, a time where my body clock and my brain are not awake nor working, reparking my car, feeling like a right idiot and considering going into local politics just to sort out the bloody transport system!
