> Car based hellscape.

There is a generation that sees it this way, and for the life of me, I can't understand it. Is it just that the internet has enabled a level of local entertainment that wasn't available before and now the absolute personal freedom that cars and roads bring don't seem as appealing as they once did?

What's the strategy for emergency ambulances in a strictly walkable town? What's your evacuation plan during a natural disaster? What accommodations will be made for the elderly? A town without roads can just as easily be a "hellscape."

Maybe there's a more rational "middle of the road" way to look at this problem?
