The future is public transport.
- jryle70 3y agoDid you know that car ownership has kept increasing in the Netherlands, at least until a few years ago? The country renown for cycling and public transportation. From 197 cars per 1000 people in 1970 we've grown to 662 in 2019. i.e. we now have more than three times the number of cars per person even compared with the "bad old days" of the car dominated 1970s ... The simple fact is that Dutch car use has grown continuously for 70 years much as it has in every other nation I love train, but let's not pretend that public transportation will be dominant. Rather, it will be a mix of different modes of transport. Cars will continue to be important. Visit the Netherlands and see for yourself. https://www.aviewfromthecyclepath.com/2019/08/the-car-free-myth-netherlands-is-great.html https://www.aviewfromthecyclepath.com/2019/08/the-car-free-m...
