>>1769580Here in Chitcago, most hours of the day, city driving isn't bad at all, it's just rush hour driving that really kills your soul. I think the larger problem is parking, how do you strike a balance so that your city doesn't end up like NYC where parking is inaccessible or a city like Houston that's a parking lot wasteland, how do you do that while forced to work on top of existing infrastructure? Cars also take up a fuck ton of space, in the residentials, it's the parking that makes city living with a car a pita. A lot of people I see are moving towards simpler alternative transportation here, like bikes (of course), scooters (powered and unpowered), boards, and monowheels.
Traffic is a difficult problem, I've been to Manila and drove there before and they're the densest city in the world with poorly managed traffic patterns, you don't want your city's traffic to become that.
