Enrique Peñalosa (Mayor of Bogota, Colombia) in SF: A Livable Streets Visionary Shares His Wisdom, for this observation about parking and automobiles:

Peñalosa pointed out that there’s no other piece of personal property for which the public provides free space for its storage. When someone buys a refrigerator, for example, the public isn’t obligated to provide a kitchen.

“Asking, ‘where should we park?,’ is like asking where you should put your clothes or your food,” he said, eliciting chuckles and applause from the packed crowd at SPUR.
