    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!!
