    Most people live in cities and is largey what i am talking about. Those are the areas that dont need you to sit in 30 minutes of traffic to go 7 kms yet thats what we have. People who have to drive should be pro transit and alternatives. It takes people who dont want to drive off the road freeing up more space and easing congestion.

      I think you seriously under-estimate how many people live nowhere near cities in North America…

        this stats website contains data that indicates about 80% of the US population currently lives in urban areas.

        Again, not saying we ban cars entirely everywhere, but we can build things like trains and trams in population centers.
