Meanwhile a battle royale between cargobike owners about parking unfolds in backyards, at schools and shops.

But i aint never seen car spots designated for cargobikes although three families could benefit from just one car space.

Here in Japan, every convenience store, supermarket and retail store has bicycle parking. Nearly all apartment buildings, which they call mansions, also have bicycle parking.

Sure, here too. But cargobikes take up a lot more space than regular bikes.
