Yep.
The car has created more problems than it has solved, what with CO2 emissions, brake and tire dust, and the incredible amount of car crash and pedestrian deaths.
Electric and autonomous cars would be positive steps forward to solving these problems, but are fundamentally still doing the wrong thing better.
The technology to solve all of our transportation problems already exists, and often has existed since the 19th century. Autonomous rapid transit has existed since the 1980s.
Compact towns with walkable streets, safe cycling lanes and high quality public transportation are all more effective and more affordable approaches to how we primarily move about our world.
