Aren't most low income drivers already removed from the street due to the price of parking + overhead of vehicle ownership?

- ghaff 5y agoDepends what the alternatives are. If the alternative to owning a clunker is not working, they'll probably find a way to manage a car somehow. (Certainly outside of a city core.)
- dnissley 5y agoAren't people taking public transit potentially low income drivers? Most people would own a car if they could afford it.
- ghaff 5y agoIn the US, outside of (some) fairly dense cities public transit isn't really a good option--at least not for everything--especially if you can't afford high rents.\ There certainly are US cities where I take transit rather than driving when I have the option. But not many of them.
