Change My View

I'm playing Devil's Advocate a bit here cos in reality "cars should be banned" doesn't make any sense at all, but I think I could get on board with "personal cars should be banned and public transit massively improved.

I don't know at all how that would work in reality, though. I used to live in a town with a train station, my commute to work by car was ~10 miles and took about 30-45 minutes depending on traffic, if I took the train I'm looking at a 90 minute journey and that's assuming exactly 0 downtime between transport types (ie. I walk right to the station to get a train, then straight out the station to get a bus). Realistically I don't know how you can improve on that?
