Streets are also dirty, noisy and smelly. How have you not noticed this? Just admit that you are familiar with one and not the other. You’ve tuned out the risks that you accept and that you force others to accept unwillingly, and they don’t factor into your perceptions anymore. So of course one looks better than the other, through the lens of delusion.
You’re right, but in a car youre isolated from that, see the difference ?
A car driving through a crappy neighborhood os better than getting on a subway in a carappy neighborhood. Now, this isnt even a question of are cars good or bad but more of if the streets were cleaned up decently and we had well taken care of public transit.
Inner city I agree cars are a nightmare. Sub 100k people towns and rural areas, they are necessary.
They’re also necessary if you haul a lot of stuff for work/hobbies, as I do.
Do you think I’ve never driven a car? Many people take transit for the exact reasons you drive a car. Because it avoids stress and unpleasant situations. Driving sucks!!
