I swear the “fuck cars” crew are completely deluded from reality.

A lot of them are, and it’s really annoying.

I want fewer cars on the road too. I want cities without constant traffic and road noise. Not to mention to environmental and health benefits. We need a reduction of cars.

But some people in the “fuck cars” camp are just in their own little bubble. Privileged people who live where public transport is good, they’re healthy and able-bodied enough to cycle, they don’t work overnight where public transport isn’t accessible.

They’re completely separate from reality. Some of us live in isolated communities where a train service obviously won’t ever happen for obvious reasons, and buses aren’t a feasible solution either.

Some of us have mobility requirements and can’t cycle 20 miles to work along a damp, dreary motorway.

bAn aLL cArS is utterly unrealistic for a slew of practical reasons, never mind the politics of a government coming along and saying “hey plebs, we plan on taking your cars away, sucks to be you, right?”

The number 1 priority should be pedestrianisation of city centres and addition of bus links, then taking it from there. Calling car drivers evil while chanting ban cars is just stupid.
