    There is room for cars to exist. I think most vehicles don’t need to be as large as they are currently, but there’s still a place for them. I just also want highspeed passenger rail, busses, lrt, bikes, and walking to be considered. I also want the government to offer these as a service, I don’t want any corporate involvement with public transit.

      I think for certain types of mass transit, specifically buses, corporate control would be fine as long as there’s enough regulation to ensure a reasonable minimum standard of safety. Even corporate trains might work if someone can wrest control of the actual rails themselves away from the freight companies.

      I agree, though. There’s room for both mass transit and individual transportation in the world.

        Clearly someone here thinks the US = the entire world.

        On the opposite side of the world said “reasonable standard of safety” is literally the norm.
