I do agree and I also prefer electric vehicles, but this massive usage of personal cars should absolutely be reduced. I live in a country with fantastic public transport and regularly travel 150km+ one way(daily, for weeks). To do this in a car would be insane. To do this in comfort on a train is amazing. Don't conflate "electric vehicle" with "personal carriage".

My colleagues wonder how I can spend so much time commuting and don't stay in a hotel like they do. That's because they think like car people. Because 3 hours in car is torture. Being away from your family 5 days a week is preferable to them. Sure, traveling so much is not ideal, but my point is that trains can be far, far superior to cars. Cars only make sense last mile and in rural areas, in my opinion.

- Electric Trains - Electric Trams - Electric buses - Electric cars - Electric Airplanes
