Yup, same logic with traffic / transportation. So much money wasted on roads instead of regulations that stimulate mixed use neighborhoods, which would reduce the need for moving around and solve the issue at the root.
Have you ever lived in an urban area? If so, did you stay within the approx 1 mile radius that is a comfortable walk for most people, a significant % of the time? No stores you liked that were a neighborhood over but not in your town? No friends across the bridge? My experience has been that I can get about 25% of what I want done within walking distance, for everything else I need transit or a vehicle, and I live in a relatively walkable mixed use urban area.
There's that series of pictures taken on a street that shows a comparison of how much space it takes to move 60 or so people in cars vs a bus vs bicycles. Obviously, the cars take up vastly more space than the other two.
Walking shouldn't be the only other option. The influence of car and oil companies has created a car dependent dystopia in North America, where it seems like it's either car or walk. But it's really the same as the trash problem. If trash bins were freeways, we don't need more of them, we need to be more efficient at moving people, essentially reducing the trash.
I'm not even talking about walking. If the average person spent 5 minutes in a car instead of 20+, the traffic would be vastly better.
