Thank you for mentioning that goods are delivered by vehicles to peoples homes…Not to mention having your trash removed by truck, groceries delivered to the store that some people walk to… we need infrastructure that supports cars and protects pedestrians. Some people also have jobs that require them to drive and the notion that there isn’t some work around via car sharing and public transit that we haven’t thought of is privileged and tone deaf.

I don't think anyone is saying cars have no purpose, they're just not efficient in an urban area. No one is arguing we should get rid of the garbage of trucks.

What does that even look like? The city has been developed with cars in mind. How much more car infrastructure could you ask for and what would it realistically accomplish?

Not “more” or all car infrastructure, but roadways need to be safe for everyone using them.
