Let's rant about cars here!

The problem

Widespread use of cars as personal transport vehicle has caused big issues globally, just to mention a few:

• Wasting resources (metal, oil, lithium), causing wars for resources
• Wasting energy (low efficiency, transporting usually ~100kg payload with ~2000kg of overhead: the car itself)
• Wasting space - cars nowadays are way too big, wasting space in the cities and also on the road.
• Wasting money: most cars are idle most of the time, are expensive to buy and maintain.
• Endangering life:
  • lots of car accidents, injuring drivers, passengers, pedestrians, cyclists, animals
  • pollution caused by cars, by oil, lithium or energy production
  • many people do not get enough physical exercise, get overweight, get ill, ...
• Big parts of the car industry are wrong-way drivers:
  • missed offering efficient, small, lightweight cars
  • pushes for big, wasteful, expensive and dangerous cars as long as they can

The solution

Considering all the problems noted above, it must be tried to have as few cars as possible and use them as efficiently as possible:

• more usage of efficient vehicles, like bikes + better infrastructure for them!
• better public transport
• vehicle sharing / ride sharing / etc. make it easy to not have an own vehicle, but still having access to one if needed
