" 3 trillion passenger miles "
But many of those miles were necessitated by the astoundingly large footprint cities and towns have when they're built to accommodate highways.
- pc86 7y agoDoes it matter? When the answer necessitates completely redesigning every major city in the country, I'm not sure the question is valid in the first place.
- CalRobert 7y agoYes, because if we're comparing the merits of one system to the other it's important to remember the goal is to move people and things where they want to be, not maximize people-miles. And we already redesigned every city in the country, so clearly it's an option.
