Says someone who lives exclusively in a city
Trains and trans are a more cost effective and environmentally friendly way to transport the masses. It can work to a surprisingly small populations as evidenced by all of the small disparate towns in Switzerland, Norway and Denmark that depend on them.
Of course no solution works everywhere but cars should never be our first option.
The US used to have robust systems of transit, but they've largely been demolished
Actually the US has plenty of robust rail connections but they're almost exclusively used for cargo.
I was referring to trolleys..
People seem to forget that there was a time before cars, where people had to rely on public transport alone.
Most people live in a city. In Australia and NZ it's around 90%, in China, Europe and Canada for sure over 50%.
I don't actually, I live in a small town, and I see american style suburbs popping up and it's fucking disgusting
Man over 90% of the population is most countries lives in a fucking city.
Helping them get off cars would be a massive improvement.
