    I know the right answer is "train" but the almost right answer is "scooters." Think about how much less congested it would all be if they were all on scooters.

      Good places to live have infrastructure built for multi-modal transport. Things like bike/scooter infrastructure needs to be included in good transit.

        I don't really like bike infrastructure just ban the cars, let people walk and bike freely in the streets and have a network of transit.

        "Good" bike infrastructure is a very complex thing that allows cars + bikes to interact safely. It's expensive as shit, and it usually leaves little space for bikes, so you even get bike traffic which is absurd. Most bike infrastructure is bad, sometimes more dangerous than just riding roads/lanes. It's not a step to move away from cars, it's a solution that accommodates them, it's like the centrist solution. Even in places where there's good bike/transit/train networks, car usage keeps growing.

          I mean yeah, I'd like no cars in my city, but when they put in bike lanes I'm still in favour. Some of the infrastructure here is actually pretty good; it's just patchy.
