Publically fund it, and make it "free"?

I know not a popular opinion and the argument is always the same. If I dont use it, why do I pay for it?

But...

Public libraries are "free" and publicly funded. Public schools are "free" and publicly funded. Public streets are "free" and publicly funded. Public plumbing "free" and publicly funded.

Not everyone uses all these things, but we all fund them. Thre are defiantly many more examples.

It is free. Just don't pay.

Sidewalk walkers also don't pay per trip

Honestly, just make it free. Probably costs more to enforce tickets than it gets revenue.
