That actually makes some sense - but I'd still rather everybody used public transport. If you've ever seen a video of what streets used to look like before cars, you can really see what driving has done to public spaces, and perhaps, to our society. It's made us a good bit more atomized, zipping from private space to private space, stuck in these really expensive monads.
