That sounds like one of the best audits people can do. When you start looking around the city and see how much space is given to dead metal. We did something similar. If you don't need a car to commute to work then you don't need a car. Haven't had one for 10 years. When we need one, we normally treat our self's to something that we would need own. Keep on riding!

I went through a similar audit earlier this year. While I did use the car a bit, it was all short trips of less than 10 km, and when the car became unrepairable, that was the time to put into action a plan I had been considering for the previous few years - go car free! The result: No car, I have an E-bike that has seen over 1500km in 2.5 months, already saved hundreds on car expenses and contributed to a cleaner and more sustainable future. See my post elsewhere.

The changes were to the Highway Code, not the law. In law, users joining or leaving at a side road have always been meant to give way to users continuing along a through road. It's just that the Highway Code previously seemed to forget that the footway is part of the highway.
