Can you explain the cloak-killing cars a bit further?

[–] Hawke 4 points 10 months ago (7 children)

Sure. Cloaks are not fun to use in a car. Basically they’re just too much cloth in too little space. They get stuck in the door when you close it, tangled in the seatbelt when you exit, and they sit either under you in a big lump or wrapped around onto your lap in a big pile. And without a lot of effort to arrange them properly they go under the seatbelt and loosen the fit a lot which is fairly unsafe.

But people drove in horse carriages before cars.

Far fewer by percent and absolute numbers than drive cars today.
