    I just want busses, trains and walkable cities. Cars shouldn’t be the norm in any society.

    And for people who don’t live in cities ?

      For the significantly fewer in society who aren’t at all negatively affected by the vast majority benefiting by the elimination of car infrastructure and building of walkable cities and public transportation?

      Literally nothing, aside from now also having trains to the bigger cities and busses in their smaller towns.

      If you need to go to the city you drive your car and then when you’re on the outskirts you can get a bus or a train in?

        I did not said that.
        My “people who don’t live in cities” means “for people who don’t live in the city and don’t need to go in the city”, not everyone need a city in their lives.

        And in this case, train and bus are not an option for most of the times.

          Nobody is saying you can’t have a car as a person not living in a city, we are talking about how cities don’t need to be filled with cars if cities were filled with decent public infrastructure.

          And if you don’t live in a city and don’t plan on going to a city why does it even concern you if cars get banned from cities?

      Is it still the “norm” when it concerns less than 20% of the people that make up society? They didn’t say cars shouldn’t exist at all, just that they shouldn’t be the norm.

      Not to mention they wrote “busses, trains” before talking about something exclusive to cities.
