That's a neat glimpse in to the past. More than a few people, narrowly missed getting run over!

Pretty cool indeed! I gotta admit, I watched through to the end waiting for the earthquake to hit.. ::paranoid::

Notice that cars did not dominate. People walked on the streets. No need for sidewalks. Bicycles, street cars & horse drawn buggies are 'the traffic'.
Far more interesting and real than whizzing by inside a car.
This video shows us what we lost when automobiles took over, the "Invasion of the Steel Monsters" proclaiming "The streets belong to us. Get out of here".
