Reply to comment by HandleShoddy in Driverless cars and electric cars being displayed as the pinnacle of future transportation engineering is just… wrong. Car-based infrastructure is inefficient, bad for the environment and we already have better technologies in other fields that could help more. An in depth analysis by mocha_sweetheart

I grew up taking public transportation and have been taking my son with me on the bus since he was six months old

Yeah, I take my kids on PT often too. The point is that if everybody does it all the time PT will suck that much harder. All those screaming babies. It's annoying now when baby carriages are limited to four or five per bus, imagine how bad it will be then. Ever see pictures of those Indian trains where people are literally hanging from the sides? Kinda like that, only with more soiled diapers and incessant wailing.
