    A government adviser has called for roads in cities to be “ripped out completely” to combat air pollution.

    First paragraph.

            I don’t get the point of highlighting “public transport”. Maybe you’re not explaining your point very well, or not understanding mine.

            My point is that no public transport options are practical as logistics solutions, especially for last-mile delivery, and therefore ripping out the roads completely (as proposed in the article) will never be practical. There will always be a need for small, independently powered vehicles to fill the gaps.

                This entire fucking topic is about private cars, not service vehicles.

                No, this ‘entire fucking topic’ is about ripping city roads out completely. It’s the title of the article.

                    I’m sorry, you think this article is hyperbole? I didn’t realize it was published by the Onion.

                    Also if you feel you need to be regularly derogatory in order to make your point, your point probably isn’t worth making. Or maybe you could just be more creative with it? If I wanted a rerun I’d just go back and read your previous comments.
