Look out, Uber. The future looks a lot more like Waymo.

There's something fundamentally American about the freedom to get in your car and drive. Driving is self-determination. The liberty to set your own course. The power to move under your own willpower, whether for duty or sheer pleasure. Despite some decline among Gen Zers, plenty of teens still eagerly anticipate getting their driver's license. In many American towns, where public transportation and walkability are scarce, driving is what empowers you to explore.

Commuter creates app to monitor foot tunnel lifts

It doesn't feel as accessible as when you are in central or west London where there's a bridge like every kilometre. When I started using [the tunnel], I would go to work and the north lift wouldn't be working in the morning and then on the way back south, that one would not be working. It was very on and off.

We thought moving from California to Tennessee would save us money. The reality wasn't so simple - and we miss the West Coast.

It's where I grew up, and we'd spent years happily raising our family there. We had a great community and liked our kids' schools - we only began thinking about leaving once my husband had to start commuting to downtown Los Angeles for work. It wasn't easy, and the appeal of a lower-cost, slower-paced life began to grow. We set our sights on Tennessee, where a lot of my husband's family lives.
