I know! We build more roads and then there will be room for all the cars and the problem will be solved. This is the most rational solution to the problem.

Building more roads will work. Induced traffic is an evil lie peddled by socialist hippies who hate freedom.

    I've heard the following arguments for building more highways instead of spending the money on public transit:

    • More roads means more traffic which means more growth. And we need growth so we can afford to do the green transition things.
    • Building more highways is actually not that bad for the climate as we plan to have a million electric cars on the road in 2030 (in a country of almost six million people and three million cars).
    • Modern families need the flexibility of the car to get everything they have to do done.
