    18 lane monstrosities are connections between the dense cities/burbs.

    All those 18 lanes are built ONLY because of cars.

      And there are fewer cars per km in rural areas. Do you think the dirt owns cars?

        What? Cars per length? What is this unit of? Some wierd linear density? I’m saying that that 18-lane abominations are built only for no other reason than driving cars. You say that car infrastructure is cheap, especially in rural areas, but you seem to ignore(intentionally or not) most expensive and destructive part of it. Which happens to go through rural areas. Or you can name abomination that is purely within city limits?

        And public transit just doesn’t need this abomination. Public transit works fine even with one lane per direction. Or track if we are talking about trains.

          That’s not even what I said. Why talk to people if you have no intent of actually listening? Talk about an unpleasant person to talk to.
