Electric cars will do more harm than good; we need to give up the idea of atomized, individual transportation in its current state altogether. Electric cars are a heroin addict saying “well, I’m only snorting it now”. Yes, it’s harm reduction, but we need to stop it now, not some bullshit taper.
Cars are not the future even if they were perfectly safe with an infinite energy source.
I’ve changed jobs, and moved, to get my commute down to 10 min each way.
As much as I can I ride my motorcycle.
There is nothing I can do to actually be rid of a car, and people who think that can change in American society are just fooling themselves.
Sure it would be great to have high speed rail, and a variety of public transit options, none of that is going to change the suburban sprawl.
Many people spend their whole lives in cities like New York never owning a car.
Its not absurd to expect Americans to never own cards it’s absurd to expect it to happen before you built cities thatenable car free lifestyles. People like to frame it as chicken and egg but it’s not, density and lifestyle always follow transportation infrastructure.
