Ideally I'd like trains for local trips and high speed rail for longer distances. I'd prefer to not own or use a car at all but most cities would have to be torn down and rebuilt to achieve this.
We did it once, we can do it again!
I don't disagree but I also don't think it will be something that can be done very quickly. While switching propulsion systems in cars can be fine till the time that they are not needed.
Same, but tearing down and rebuilding cities is a feature, not a bug. Well, except for the carbon emissions involved in doing that.
Surely buses make way more sense for local trips.
