Spoken like a true car hater. I don't like cars either, but getting rid of an old way of travel is a lot more difficult than a simple software switch.

- philipov 10y agoWhat's funny about that characterization is, living in the suburbs, I spend quite a bit of time driving recreationally, and I can't rely on public transit, so I appreciate cars a lot. However, Downtown Manhattan is not the suburbs, and it's an inappropriate place for passenger vehicles. I don't think it qualifies for the "old way of travelling" bucket in that context: subways are already the standard.
