Cars are a problem. They pollute(yes, even electric ones), are costly to run, greatly increase the danger of neighborhoods, cause a reduction in smaller businesses. They make it more expensive for people who don’t have money to get around, make it harder for children to get safely from place to place. They generate sizeable areas of development damage to growing people along major highways and roads(again, even electric causes this).
It’s a small inconvenience for a major bettering of the world. You really underestimate how bad cars are for society and the planet. Cars account for 28% of usa emissions according to the epa(on a yet ungriefed section). Add in the rubber tires breaking down everywhere which gets worse as car weight increases, and you can see how it creates issues to wildlife, children, and the climate. Don’t underestimate the emissions created in producing your electric car’s batteries and tires either— they’re better than an ice but still an issue.
Cars exist too, and a whole lot more effective than a raincoat or a bubble. It’s a solved problem.

It’s not a solved problem, cars are a problem.
Everything pollutes, yes, even bikes.
The degree is considerably different. And that still ignores the non pollution issues.
The usefulness is also considerably different.
Exactly my point: caring about a minor convenience.over seriously bettering the world.
It more like a major inconvenience vs infinitesimally bettering the world.

No wonder, americans still use 6 liters engines on 4 ton trucks to get groceries.
A small electric compact car with a small battery (soon to be sodium) solves all of the problems while performing the same functions.
