Abstract

I have a friend, known as a brilliant economist, who insists that more and more cars will define our future. He’s sure that most people prefer their own private space and control of their own vehicle rather than sharing public space as a passive rider. I’m sure many people share his view – particularly those who’ve never set foot in a bus or subway car. But my own experience commuting from Reston to downtown DC has challenged this conventional wisdom.
