Nobody wants to ban people from taking a car if they reasonably need it to get around. Or even just want to use it.
But if alternatives are actively pursued, it’ll end up better for everyone. Bikes, pedestrians and public transport cause way less traffic per person per mile. And usually cheaper (in terms is tax dollars spent), too.
And shorter distances between homes and stores will also reduce the length of the car trips.
It’s incredulous to me that people will still frame this issue as “car drivers will lose”.
