Misleading title. Brexit will not be renegotiated, it's over and done with. The relation between the UK and the EU will always be an evolving matter (like the relation of the EU and any other country including its members), bit Brexit is done, the UK is out and that's the new premise of any discussion and evolution of the relation.

Then you're not good, you're just law compliant.

The person under an abusive situation easily loses the car key to the abuser.

Ambulances get stuck all the time in congestioned cities and that's a problem.

A car should never be someone's night shelter, that person is homeless in that case. Houses, not cars, can solve the problem.

Want to do a special trip where car is the most convenient option? You can rent one out. If you only use a car a few times a year, buying one is a terrible waste of money and street space.

As far as I know these anti-theft measures they demand are optional in Europe and you pay extra for them. If crime is low is not such an issue not having them. So maybe Chicago should bet on reducing crime instead?

The retirees don't last so long (sorry), but overtourism is indeed a problem. Finding the right balance is the secret but clearly our politicians are not aiming for that.. but in fairness, tourism was fantastic for many years to promote Porto's renewal. But now it's time to put a break on it but no one is interested in that :/

As an European I'm extremely confused by this news as well.. so Chicago has a high crime problem and the city's solution is to sue Asian carmakers? Sorry but this only makes sense in the US, I guess..

PS: maybe Hyundai should also sue Chicago city for failing to curb crime, a failure that leads to many car thefts?

You can buy very decent wine for less than 3€/bottle in any Portuguese supermarket 😅

"one parking space" is not a universal measurement unit, they come in many different sizes.

Japan is probably the cleanest country I've ever been to and you rarely see a bin on the street. Easily accessible bins promote carelessness with the trash you produce. If there are no bins you need to think ahead and plan how you'll dispose of your trash.

It already is. The doubt is when will it "sell voluntarily" Siberia to China.

No, not all cars are created equally. Some require much more public space and some are also much more efficient at killing.
