A parkway by definition is cars only.
Only by your definition. The definition everyone else uses goes like "a broad thoroughfare with a dividing strip or side strips planted with grass, trees, etc.". Another. And another.
And that's why it's annoying when people like you simply make things up to suit their argument while ignoring the facts.
You, with your experience and knowledge may blissfully believe that that is what the definition of a parkway is. Me, with my experiences and knowledge may believe that that is an incomplete definition at best. I would never drive down a road labeled "parkway" in anything but a car, based upon my experiences and knowledge. That's why it's really annoying when someone with a completely different experiences then my own, tries to label my experiences as false, solely based upon their own experiences. I'm sure if you googled the term, you not only found confirmations of your experience, but you also found confirmations of my experience; which you completely disregarded and settled for the more abridged version.
In Pittsburgh a Parkway is a 3 lane highway which comes up to a 2 lane tunnel, and you sit in bumper to bumper, stop and go traffic moving along in 3 mph spurts every morning and evening.
