See? That's the precise problem with car advocates. How many times in your _life_ are you having a baby? How many times in your _life_ is your mother dying?

Just take the car in these situations, that's not the problem. The problem is people justifying 90% of the car usages (which could be replaced by bicycle or public transportation) by being snarky about the remaining 10% (and I'm being generous with 10%).




You're missing the point.

People have emergencies, and everyday people have dire emergencies like that. Trains do not fit those cases, which happen ALOT, every second.

You want to change everything without having a solution to fill the void.
