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.
On the bike photo: I've always thought about that. For less than 5,000 you can buy a moped which can go up to 35 MPH. These days, they can be fully electric. It seems kind of strange that we ended up in a state where most people drive by themselves about 90% of the time in a car built for 4+ people.
It becomes an arms race, mopeds and e-bikes and normal bikes become safety hazards because of these giant cars and monster trucks which permiate our roads--I'd love to ride my bike to work, but I know for sure It wouldn't be long before I was hit by a driver, in my city it happens every day and the bike routes suck. Sorry, I'm not relying on "sharrows" to keep me safe on the street.
Its in most cities interest to roll out battery-electric shuttles/buses and make them free at point of use. I'd gladly pay a little extra in taxes for such a service because the benefit to the public at large is so huge.
