You might be right, but it could be for the wrong reasons. I think more progressive governments are recognising that the days of the private car driver being at the summit of the transportation hierarchy are over, and more urban environments will prioritise active travel and public transport over car use.

If you live in the US, where huge numbers of people commute by car, on roads that are much straighter than European roads, where pedestrians are massively discriminated against, and there is massive congestion you can see why some people think autonomous cars are the answer.
But here it’s very different and I’m not sure it’ll ever become the norm.
