Comment on The technology to end traffic deaths exists. Why aren’t we using it?

Still trains.
If cities are designed better, trains get more effective. Do mixed zoning and put housing on top of shopping, and the last mile plan problem is largely solved. For the rest, bicycles and buses work well.
And walking can be way better with moving walkways. They’re popular at airports, and I’d love to see them more in malls and maybe underground/covered sidewalks.
The most important thing is to commit and make driving more annoying so solutions to the last mile problem can be created. Otherwise you’ll just end up with gridlock.

Subways makes more sense.
Somewhat common where I live, not common enough though.

Also trains. If it runs on rails, it’s a train.
