I agree we need strong public transportation but there is still going to be a need for cars. I travel across state borders for my commute from a small town. Sure I could move, but then I'd have to likely pay way more for a house, taxes, groceries, etc, so unless the unlikely event they add a train that crosses state borders and connects small towns, some people will always have a need for a car unfortunately.
Also the public transport would likely take decades we don't have to be everywhere meanwhile you can buy an electric car right now.
That being said I wish I had public transportation everywhere. I'd totally use it. I hate driving.
Mine has that too. Its cool and not so cool. Camera gets dirty, but I can spray to clean it. Driving in rain you just see water kicked up from the tires so it's all you see. Its also harder to gauge distance IMO. On the plus side, if you have the back window blocked by heads in the back seat / recently purchased a big object like a TV, it's a great backup so you can see out the back. Also, mine at least seems too use a wide angle camera, this is pretty nice since you can see blind spots and more lanes when on 3+ lane highway.
