[THREAD: On moving people, not cars]

1/ I recall my own "conversion" from the moving cars to the moving people perspective in public transport.

It was uncomfortable. I had to admit that whenever I rode a private car, I was slowing down other commuters who took public transport.
2/ My riding a car slowed down the poor: 88 percent of households cannot afford a car. My riding a car also slowed down other cars. My riding a car slowed down EVERYONE.
3/ I had to admit I was wrong. That I made a mistake. That my earlier view of measuring traffic as the flow of cars, and not as the flow of people, was anti-poor.
