6: Regaining calm in busy walking environments

Decision Theme: Regaining calm in busy walking environments

Busy pavements, parks, and shared paths demand quick reactions. Before switching, those environments required constant vigilance.

What changed after using this lead consistently is reaction time. The brake and lock system becomes instinctive. You don’t think — you respond.

Over time, this reduces fatigue. Not physical fatigue, but decision fatigue. Walks feel calmer because you’re not constantly calculating what might happen next.

For people who walk in mixed environments regularly, this kind of responsiveness quietly improves the experience.
