Today was my first day seriously going car free and despite some literal roadblocks ahead I think it's doable. Any tips taking this further? Thanks in advance.

You should probably mention the general area you live in for actual recommendations. Like I'd suggest public transport, but I know it's god awful in the USA and might not be an option for you if you live there.

My thoughts exactly. If you lived where I am my advice would be always wear a reflective vest and walk towards onconing traffic because you're going to be walking in the road.
