About inter-city public transportation I will post in my thread about transportation once I gather thoughts for that but here we are talking about intra-city public transportation and we need not have it so complicated as is the current state. Think of this : Within Indian cities would replacing the 30 million petroleum-fuel personal cars and hundreds of millions of petroleum-fuel personal two-wheelers with 30 million electric personal cars and hundreds of millions of electric personal two-wheelers ever solve the Indian problem of chaos, accidents, crime and disharmony ? In India there are about 450,000 road accidents every year with many many deaths and these accidents and deaths are very avoidable. Just ban personal vehicles and almost all of those accidents are gone. Why live a complicated life when you can live a simpler and much better one ?
Secondly, the big cities now should be decongested of people too by building scientifically-planned, aesthetic and harmonious satellite townships and providing employment there. In this post I present how a township should be built. In
this post from last year I wrote how such townships should be arranged and I quote from it :
Yes, I have written of this before many times. What we need are satellite townships which are built scientifically and aesthetically, to enable harmonious living and to prevent crime and chaos, all this written into the townships' DNA. Nicely built neighborhoods which have 100x80 foot house plots which have a compulsory garden, a tree ( say lemon ), a comfortable cat shelter and the main house itself being max two storey with the main cat house on the terrace which should also have potted plants. Wide roads which can be places to stand in case of earthquake. Four house plots for every length of road. There should be multiple Vertical Farms in every neighborhood and each farm should have collectivized labor. One shop for groceries, vegetables and processed food items with most of the vegetables coming from the neighborhood's Vertical Farms. WiFi point on every road. A reasonably large clinic. One 3D Printing shop for every three neighborhoods. A nicely built shopping district with malls that include a cinema hall set. The people employed in these Vertical Farms and general Urban Farms, security, maintenance and other high-tech industry. The work places and the shopping and recreation buildings and areas built not in ugly modern glass-facade but in aesthetic and harmonious Greco-Roman, Ancient Egyptian and Islamic architecture. Fountains. Multiple general hospitals with specialized treatment too. Educational institutions which have cross-disciplinary teaching. And yes, the township shouldn't have dogs and in keeping with this thread's theme no privately-owned personal transport vehicles but instead have 30-passenger cyclorotor skybuses and six-passenger cyclorotor skytaxis. There should be cyclorotor-based ambulances which can carry at least three patients with reasonable health systems and cyclorotor-based police vehicles [ For what is a "cyclorotor" you must read the linked post's thread ].
Now we can further discuss what socio-economic and political system the new townships should have.
You know the USP of Uber when it came out was that Americans need no longer take their personal cars out and could instead use Uber. That didn't work to remove USA from the sources of global pollution from vehicles, yes ?
Some things need a straight ban to simplify things and restart from a clean slate.
As for the electric scooter, there's a frenzy of some countries manufacturing electric scooters including India and for the last few months electric scooters have been catching fire in India including one incident where there's a consignment of scooters within a truck, not even running.
Sorry but this is rubbish. Please read my last few posts. You cannot present something in a happy manner when its base itself is wrong.
