I was reading your message, why an airplane was flying overhead.
There is more than just cars that make noise, but at least we have all the tools and technology to make cars in cities almost completely quiet.
- ben_w 3y agoIndeed. The airport this plane was approaching was converted into an asylum processing centre for Ukrainians, the replacement is just outside the city limits: https://youtu.be/OIu-dDKCBoI https://youtu.be/OIu-dDKCBoI It was, naturally, much louder IRL than it seems in this clip.
- Steltek 3y ago> make cars in cities almost completely quiet. Yes, by getting rid of them. A well designed city doesn't need private automobiles.
- sokoloff 3y agoDo you have an existing city in mind as a model?
- booleandilemma 3y agoI've lived in nyc for close to 20 years and never needed own a car. Between the subway, buses, and taxis (and uber, etc. nowadays) there is no reason to own a car unless you're using it to drive others around.

- Moldoteck 3y agoIt does need them, just not on every corner and just as last resort after foot, public transport, bikes and rentals, but car's shouldn't be banned, just regulated
- moooo99 3y ago> There is more than just cars that make noise, There is, but there is a vast difference in how much noise and when they make noise. I live next to a tram line with a 10-minute schedule. 12 trams/hour are substantially less annoying noisewise than the constant influx of cars the whole day.
