More places need a system like this, cause fuck cars, but I don't like how this gate-keeps for only the wealthy. It would be nice if there was an inclusive system for people who really need one and pubic transit isn't a good option. Do they have cheap carshare rentals like Car2Go or similar? Maybe if it was a lottery that prioritized those with disabilties and accessibility needs that Transit, E-bikes Etc doesn't suffice for.
Agreed
I'm pretty sure public transit IS a good option in Singapore, because it's so dense and wealthy. An excellent transit system is a prerequisite for making cars unavailable for most people, I'd say.
Google gives up hourly car rentals, idk if they have ones like here in Estonia where you just walk up to a Bolt Drive car and unlock it via the app.
Hmm, well, if it's a lottery, that means people with disabilities still aren't guaranteed cars. On the other hand, if you give everyone with disabilities the ability to easily buy a car - everyone's going to have a disability.
