No, they've got a point. These are simply not compatible with the old town and that's exactly where they go with them.

It's tight enough with normal cars, this is well across what's feasible in practice.

That sounds an awful lot like the vehicle owner's problem to me.

No, it's a problem for everybody else that is trying to use those roads as well.

I don't know who this is supposed to belittle, but I've been on HN quite a bit longer than on Reddit.
