One of my most strongly-held beliefs is that cars were a huge mistake. Ambulance carrying a crash victim crashes in L.A., drawing a crash investigator — who also crashes - Los Angeles Times share.google/XzWB3gQ8zWUK...

Fact: cars destroyed the North American streetcar network.

Well, L.A. and other cities being designed around them definitely was.

A strange tragedy lost in media & modern history. A topic of high relevance regarding extreme violence and death and maiming over decades cloaked as convenience and normality despite the fact that each and every one of us can name off people in our lives killed or maimed in motorized collisions.

I can name more people who have died from suicide than from car crashes. Not sure what that indicates, but I thought it an interesting point for some reason.

It's close here too – maybe about the same regarding closer friends.

One might consider the bigger picture and simply state that the Industrial Revolution, modern medicine, and lack of family planning deserve some credit/blame for the world’s prognosis.

Not sue it's the cars. Pretty sure it's removal of driver's ed from our schools. Trained by bad drivers we produce more bad drivers along with their belief, universally held, that we are better than average drivers.

Betting on cars instead of transit was a huge mistake.
