Yes people, I know you only use bikes and trains and whatnot. But some people neee cars, and you have to respect that. Or are you gonna tell this mother of 2, living in a village, working from office 20km from home, that she would be better off just sticking to the public transport which visits her place once every 2 hours.

The point of this movement isn't to simply ban cars like that will somehow solve all of life's problems. Some people use bikes and trains not just because they can, but because they have to.

Cars are a symptom of a pattern of development that makes us disconnected, both from each other and from our needs. It isn't right that you should have to work 20km from home where the only option you have is to spend monthly payments on a car loan, insurance and gas. You should have the option to work from home, or closer to home, or within reach of easily accessible and usable public transit.
