    Step one of reducing car-dependency is to reduce their number on the road. Then you can start bulding shit that accommodates the poor through actually nice-to-use public transit, bicycle paths, and walking routes.

    Why can’t you start building shit before reducing their numbers? I don’t see what one has to do with the other.

      Of course you can. I’m using “step one” as a figure of speech to express importance.

      Controlling vehicle numbers is a very “low hanging fruit” that can do a lot to improve things for a very low cost.
