Take a bus, tram, metro, try bike - ask your politicians to make them reasonable.

Cities should be pedestrians first, public transport and cyclists second, cars third. Certainly something we should aim at in Europe.

Where I live we don't have any tracks.

Bikes are impractical, terrain is stupidly hilly, some places even cars struggle.

As for buses... they are not useful for me because often the reason why I am taking out the car in first place (usually I just walk everywhere) is because I am going to supermarket (and our inflation-prone economy favors you making a huge purchase once per month, instead of many small purchases)

It is no wonder in a capital city nearby, there are so many cars that the area used by all cars is bigger than the area of all roads and streets combined.
