While I agree with you about auto ownership in the CBD in general, there are certain individuals for whom neither public transport nor taxis/car services are not an option. I normally prefer to use public transport for most of my travel, but if I have a gig in the CBD which I often do, I can’t pack the many instruments I play and my PA system into either a bus, train or even a cab so I need the car and it has to be at the ready for my last minute gigs which I get quite a few of. If I had to charge the pub owners the amount of money necessary to offset the cost of a car service, they wouldn’t be able to afford to hire me. There are also occupations such as doctors and other medical and emergency service personnel who need to be able to get to a hospital or other facility at a moment’s notice sometimes with specialized implements for whom public transit is also not an option. |
