Re: Sign if you agree. RE:bus stop spacings

I was being sarcastic.

No one is going to run out and buy a car if some parking spaces are added. I was using the logic of auto haters who believe that if you make any improvements for drivers like synching traffic signals or removing a bottleneck, everyone will run to buy a car.

Auto purchase and ownership is a very complicated decision to make. You first have to ask yourself if you will use it often enough for it to be worth your while. Would renting, zip cars, or taxis make more sense. Can you afford the insurance? What about the increasing price of gas? How much will parking it cost? Will it help you get a job? Will you be using it regularly or occasionally. Is the cost worth the convenience? Is the time saved worth the extra cost? Etc. It is not a decision you make on a whim based on a single factor that auto haters would have you believe.
