Aren't you concerned with walking in dog crap or falling down into a hole or something? I recall in the news a while back some woman in New York or something was looking at her phone while walking down the street and fell into some type of construction hole or something... Plus there is the issue of one's safety when they are preoccupied while walking down the street.

Here it varies from city to city and, surprisingly, from sidewalk to sidewalk. In some areas where space is wide there are separate bike and pedestrian lanes, in others they share… and when a motorcyclist dares to use the latter to beat traffic it's hell. There's sidewalk by the vets' golf course that I walk to from the office to the mall, and I've gotten my share of run-ins.

I'm of both minds. Throughout my life, I've had somewhere between 12 and 20 cats, most of which were outdoors in a sort of urban environment (New Orleans gets squirrels, raccoons, oppossum, coyotes, and other wildlife, despite being a city). Personally, I haven't seen a difference in longevity, but for every one of "ours" there are probably 10 that die well before their times.
Two of these cats even survived "in the wild" through Hurricane Katrina (our neighbourhood didn't flood) and 1.5 months on their own until we returned. The younger of these two is still with us and about 18 years old now. About 6-7 of our cats have lived about this long despite spending at least half their times outside.
We're some of those that have never chipped any of our animals. IMO, cats just wouldn't be worth chipping. If they leave their happy home there's probably a good reason for it, such as they no longer wish to be there. One of our cats ended up "moving" to a neighbour's house. She seemed happier. We didn't complain. This was shortly after the birth of our daughter, so maybe that had something to do with it.

Ugh....thank goodness that hasn't been a trend in my area yet.
To add another. People who look like they are trying to get as close as they can to not hitting your car while making a left turn onto a crossing street. I've seen this quite a lot. I will be waiting in my lane for the light to change and then someone with the street that has the green light makes their turn. The other day was the worst yet. This big Dodge pickup actually crossed the yellow dividing line in the road and was on my side of the street. I almost wanted to jump to the other side of my car!
