I think it's great that people are questioning car use in big cities like Los Angeles. I've visited a fair number of cities in my life, and those without many cars are much more pleasant to hang out in. Much healthier, too. Subways, bicycle paths and walking streets work very well in large cities. However, I hope people won't make the mistake of trying to get rid of cars in rural areas and small towns. Public transportation does not work well here. Many left-wing politicians don't want cars anywhere, whereas many right-wing politicians want cars everywhere. Some people seem to have difficulties seeing that different solutions work well in different situations.
