There is overwhelming evidence against the increase of dependency on car centric transportation. Yet people just don't get it until it impacts them personally (ie, death of loved one, loss of limbs of friends, paralysis, DUI).
I'm honestly done with trying to convince politicians, car-brains, "traffic engineers", transportation departments that they way we have been scaling our infrastructure is a tremendous waste of resources. Every talking point they have presented has a mountain evidence against it, yet they continue churning away at "wE mUsT bUiLd mOrE hIgHwAyS!!1 [at the expense of the federal/state/local budgets, environment, and communities near these projects]".
