Who said anything about being anti-car?
Just sick of traffic levels getting worse and worse. I don't even buy into the whole climate change/emmissions argument.
But, the point is, how long can you keep selling a product, when everybody already has it. Bringing out new models every 5 minutes worked for a while, but who cares any more whether you have the latest and greatest?
In the western world just about everybody can afford a half decent car now. So who is left to buy more in the volumes previously seen?
I passed my old sixth form college a few weeks ago, while I was there, 3 students had a car, now you can't park anywhere near the place because of all the 'kids' cars.
As for us all depending on it to an extent, I'm sure you're right. Doesn't change a thing though. A 'correction' is long overdue.
