The definition of a "meme" here is intentionally pretty loose. Images, screenshots, and the like are welcome!
But, keep it lighthearted and/or within our server's ideals.

If you can walk/bike to your job without the threat of being run over, you are one less car on the road.
Thihk of it in levels:
People will skip work-commuting by car (including students) when there are other viable options that are not made life-threatening by other people in cars. Fewer trips= less traffic
People will avoid driving for errands when there is decent local public transit that lets them shop where they want. Even fewer trips = even less traffic
People will stop owning cars when there is decent local public transit and decent regional networks. Fewer cars = less traffic
