      This is more of a North American problem. Many north americans believe it is too dangerous to let kids walk to school.

        When I was young, unless you had a driver’s license, everyone took the school bus (ain’t nobody walking 20 miles to school).

      Shockingly common in England currently. There’s a scheme to change roads near schools to pedestrian only during school hours but it’s getting loads of push back from the Range Rover brigade.
