One of my favourite songs to quote is Courtney Barnet’s Dead Fox:
More people die on the road than they do in the ocean. Maybe we should mull over culling cars instead of sharks, or just lock them up in parks where we can go and view them
While I am massively pro human centric transpiration (walkable cities, bicycle infrastructure, public transport), this take makes no sense.
Cars have their place, for certain deliveries, disabled people, emergency services.
Cars are unsafe at any speed, but we can’t just get them off the road tomorrow. We need to stop over funding more road projects and instead plow it into overhauling our infrastructure.
Bob and Betty citizen living in the outer suburbs because we keep building detached houses can’t afford to not drive. There’s no bloody train.
More trains, more apartments (with better Owners Corporation laws), more bike lanes.
Cars are unsafe at any speed. Get them off the roads.

Bit by bit, we can take the cars off the road.
