“Giving people more viable alternatives to driving means more people will choose not to drive, so there will be fewer cars on the road, reducing traffic for drivers.”
Concise, easy to understand, and accurate. I have used it at least a dozen times and it is remarkable how well it works.
Also—
“A bus is about twice as long as a car so it only needs to have four to six passengers on board to be more efficient than two cars.”
Y’all either circle jerk on hating cars/car culture or try to meaningfully convince people to move away from car culture. This community will never convince “carbrains” in its current state. Accept that and have fun circle jerkin’ or pivot and try to change minds.
Asking “why doesn’t this group we actively shit on supporting our thought process?” or “how do we get them to change/agree?” is silly.
Welcome to social media, not sure where you’ve been all this time lol
Like you are going to have a choice? Economically, we can’t continue down the road of a car dependent society.
Oh the car companies know. They’re helpfully starting up subscription services for cars. And when cars go self-driving they’re going to make the subscription a rideshare like service. Coming full circle back to the trolley cars they killed.
But it’s so satisfying.
I want a “Carbrain” bumper sticker…
