To be clear, !transport is not anti-car, it's pro-public transport and cycling. To promote public transit, cycling, and other modes of transportation, I feel that de-emphasizing cars is unfortunately required.

If I allow car talks like new models/make, mods etc. there those will dominate the discussions on the community, and reinforces the idea that you need to have a car to go anywhere, totally defeating the aforementioned goals.

Plus, I think enthusiasts-specific discussions are better done on their own communities anyway, not just cars, but trains, motorcycles, bicycles, etc as well. Folks who are into those sorts of things are welcomed to create communities for those. :)

Lastly, !transport allows posts on highways and traffic as it's used by all, including people on public transport (e.g. city buses and intercity coaches). (EDIT: ride-sharing and e-hailing topics are also allowed.)

Hope this comment clarifies my position.
