As long as automobiles and gasoline are such an important source of tax revenue for local, county and regional governments it's likely that they'll only go through the motions of attempting to reduce dependence on them. I'll believe they really mean it if they start prohibiting any new development that is not at least as accessible and functional for non-motorists as it is for those who drive. The way we build now it seems that in many new communities the shortest and safest way to walk from one place to another is on the railway tracks, rather than a two- or four-lane hightway with no sidewalks. I wonder how many railfans live in places like that and don't complain.
