An idling gas engine may be annoyingly loud, but that’s the price you pay for having WAY less torque available at a standstill.

Eradicating personal vehicles is not feasible.

Not owning a personal vehicle is only okay if you live in the heart of a city and don’t go outside of that little bubble. All other scenarios massively benefit from a personal vehicle; even going from one side of a city to another.

Like most people in the western world (and indeed likely in most of the world) do.

I’m going to have to see a source for this claim.

I know the person has merit in their argument when they go on the personal attack. 👍

Im sorry but how else do you drive 2 hours into the middle of the woods where there are no other people around so you can get away from godawful society for a while if not owning your own car? Im certainly not going to pay someone else to drive me out to a favorite low/no traffic spot just to show everyone where it is and then ruin it.
