Just to be clear, I do think the obvious solution to terrible things like this is vastly expanded public transit so that people don't have to rely on cars to get everywhere, not overhyped technology and driving aids that are still only marginally better than a human driver. I just thought the article was interesting.

We need more people part of the FuckCars, Walk, Bike, & Public Transit online cultures

Need more outreach to get things happening even more. Also my comment on this post would solve a lot of things by not having to redo outreaching to people

Even better, the equivalent irl cultures. Most cities have groups advocating for better bike and pedestrian infrastructure and better public transit.
