>the UK tore down a lot of the prior existing cities or never rebuilt them after WW2 so that they could make way for the same type of development that America did

Lol. No we didn't. We revbuilt Coventry because it got flattened but every city we had at the start we had by the end.

MK we tried around your planning, with mixed results. But that was a new city.

>You know what is miserable? Sitting in traffic and wasting my life away every day

Self driving motorhomes will fix that.

>Not being able to walk like we were naturally born to do in order to pick up something to eat or buy groceries. The

I've just got back from a walk into town (the one I live in rather than work in). Traffic didn't stop you walking you just stay on the pavement.

>Pedestrians getting mowed over by cars

Most pedestrians cause the accident they're involved in. Very few get stuck on the footpath.

Same with cyclists which is why so few motorists are persecuted despite almost every cyclist having video evidence of their accident.

>The insane amount of pollution and waste they've created.

No case to answer Vs electric cars.

>I would take getting rained on a little bit if it was substantially less full of oil byproducts

That's nice for you but it's not the choice most people would make. They could make it now and they don't.

>Bikes and buses are the most reasonable transport

If by reasonable you mean terrible then yes. They're slow, inefficient, unpredictable, and pony useful for short journeys. It's legacy thinking.

>That will never be allowed near residential areas

And yet they will be. It's the future. So trying to make everyone live in the past. We didn't mind it so we changed it. Progress.

>If you want your personal vehicle, move to the countryside and don't ruin public spaces for everyone else

If you don't want to be near people personal vehicles then move to the countryside and stop loving in a city morning about everyone else. You can do this now.
