Not if they are gasoline cars, particulate pollution alone kills tens of thousands.
An electric rail network on the other hand would have real positive externalities, but isn't as easily privitazable so won't be built.
- ant6n 9y agoEven electric cars aren't pollution free, and there are still other negative externalities (like health costs associated with car-centric life styles).
