Oops didn’t realise you aren’t the guy I replied to!

Just to clarify, you regard both cars and houses as death machines because nearly everyone that owns them has died?

I don’t follow. Are you equating houses with cars as “death machines”? If yes, how so?

And how do you think robotaxis address all these issues (high fare, poor coverage, limited operating hours)?

I can’t tell you who/what to vote. But I’m glad we agree that the city is the issue.

You know the problem already: poor coverage of public transit. Why not advocate for that? It’s much safer than any cars, and we have the tech right now. We can stop killing people right now.

Many people literally die each year because of car-centric infrastructure, and you’re basically telling us to calm down? No fucking way.

Before cars, there used to be a massive amount of infrastructure for trains and streetcars, not to mention walkable neighbourhood, but they all get demolished for cars. So yes, we do operate like that.

And did I mention that car-centricity kills people each year? So yes, eliminate all cars if we have to. But honestly, I don’t think anyone wants to eliminate all cars, just those we don’t need (which is most of them).

Sounds like your city is the problem here, not trains. Vote better.

Normal taxis benefit both the elderly and people with disabilities like you said right now. So why bother with robotaxis?

How is solving a quadratic equation, whose analytical solution is known, equal to driving?

Trains now are already much less lethal than cars. If safety is truly important for you, you would advocate for trains. You ain’t fooling anyone mate.

I’ve been enjoying cycling as transportation lately, so right now my top choice is a bike. It’s just so much fun! The ability to dismount and instantly be a pedestrian, and to bring it inside trains makes bicycles very versatile.
