It’s very on brand for California to outright ban something the poors use in the name of saving the climate. All while looking the other way at big business like OpenAi
If they really wanted to reduce petroleum using cars they could remove or reduce minimum parking, zoning laws, ban strodes in urban environments, require protected bike lanes ect.
Walkable cities and affordable public transportation is the real answer, but the absurdly rich and authoritarian neolib CA prefers lip service, green washing, and gentrification.
Banning the (unfortunately dominant) mode of transportation without having the viable alternative ready is so fucking naive it hurts. Where is HSR? Where are the needed effective commuter rail projects?
