    That only accounts for cars that fit in a single standard parking spot. It ignores the idiot taking up four spots for his precious sports car (that he brought to Walmart), large trucks/SUVs, or people who double park because lines don’t make sense to them.

        Bikeable cities, e-bikes, public transit, and of these or combinations really should be enough for people to get around a city.

          I need to go 40km to work. It’s 30min by car. And 90min by public transportation. I don’t want to waste 3 hours a day when I can waste 1 hour.

            With a less car-centric design, you probably wouldn’t have to live so far from work and there’d be more space and money for improved public transit efficiency. Hypothetically speaking… of course this will never actually happen. We’ll just keep making larger and larger roads, spreading out farther and farther, and requiring more people to drive further, increasing the demand for more larger roads. But of course certain kinds of work would never be put in the middle of a city, and would be less efficient to get to as a result.

            In my city, though, a nice possible medium is bike + transit. Usually this enables much more efficient use of public transit. Instead of Walk - wait - bus - wait - bus - walk its more like ride - wait - bus - ride. Cutting out that transfer and increasing the speed of getting to and from the transit line makes for much more efficient mobility, even on moderate length trips.

      @traveler

      1,15 persons per car… this is how cars are used. All over the world…

      Not more… and if you subtract parents who are carrying their children to school (the taxidriver is never countet for occupation rate… even the bus-driver!!!) then the occupation-rate sinks below 1 person per car…

    +/- 20 cars

    Er… the first row of fine has 18 cars.

    I mean fuck cars, no doubt, but there’s no need to falsify the comparison to make the point.
