You keep misrepresenting the position I’m trying to explain. No one wants to eliminate cars completely from the face of the earth (well I’m sure someone does, but that’s not what’s being talked about). As I said before, cars should be a situational tool, not an everyday necessity for everyone.
All that only further proves the point that current public transport infrastructure in your area is insufficient.
Yeah, that I can agree with. If new technologies can be used to have public transport rival the convenience of cars, I’m all for it.
Also, you won’t find many people praising Budapest’s public transport, lol, but at least they made sure that cars actually aren’t a necessity. I’m 26 and I never even had a license, let alone a car. But there are very few situations where cars wouldn’t be an improvement and almost all of them involve being around the densest central areas of the city.
