| Message | PRivate vehicles are a tremendous waste of resources. a) they sit unused most of the time requiring space to house in our cities where space is a precious resource b) they generally have 1 person in them even though there are many others heading in the same general area c) they require the capability to be multipurpose thus are unable to be tailored to a specific task A far more efficeient method is to ban or severally reduce the number of private vehicles and using a combination of public transport and rental for specific tasks. |
