Caltrans official says she was demoted for objecting to highway expansion

Every provincial and state DOT in North America has this 1950s sprawl / freeway ideology so deeply embedded. It's crazy. They don't accept any new statistics or science.
Even in California and BC (both progressive governments currently) nobody has talked about the regressive DOTs.
We don't notice, because regressive urban planning is considered normal in North America. We're basically brainwashed by thinking its normal from a young age.
