     @Bradley_JF The auto industry took care of that by dismantling the public transportation that existed long ago. :blobfoxupsidedown:

     @tk The real problem is that public transportation is absolute shit, even in New York City. If you want people to stop using cars, adding more tolls and taxes won't do it. You have to provide a viable alternative. I need a train that goes from the Bronx directly to Brooklyn without getting jammed up in Manhattan. Otherwise, I lose hours of my life by using the train instead of my car.

     @tk I love driving but there are some days after work that I'm tired and want to go home without having to drive. I can't focus my eyes, have things on my mind, and pay attention to the speed limit. I'm *forced* to be a danger on the road. I hope a cop isn't around on one of my bad days.
