It boggles my mind how much the HN crowd utterly despises cars. I could never imagine myself living without a car, even in cities/countries with amazing public transit (NYC is not such a place). I am 100% in agreement for banning cars from dense urban cores. But my impression is that people here want to go much, much, further than that, ranging from exterminating the concept of suburbs all the way to exterminating all privately owned cars ensuring the only way to visit Grandma‘s farm is via bus.
