It's not impossible, much of the world operates without 99.9% car usage like the USA.
Every major European city metro area can be traversed without a car. Hell I went through 18 countries and 35+ cities in Europe without renting a car and only using a bus or plane maybe 4-5 times.
This is an entirely self-made problem. A world not reliant on cars is not la-la land. It's a land where a car isn't treated as more important than a human, which should be the norm and is known to work in many other first world countries.
- SoftTalker 3y agoThe USA is a lot more spread out than Europe. In places where it isn't (NYC, Chicago) you can get around without a car pretty well. Guess what, in small towns in Europe and in rural areas, most people have cars too, and they drive to get their groceries.
- enragedcacti 3y agoThe northeast corridor is practically as dense as western Europe and we have a number of car-dependent cities denser than major transit-rich European cities. > Guess what, in small towns in Europe and in rural areas, most people have cars too, and they drive to get their groceries. That's fine! lets get our intra and intercity transit solved and small town people can keep doing what they've been doing.
