Still, I don't want to be so cautious that nothing gets done.
What I'd want is for our society to recognize any reasonable alternative to the auto.
The price to be paid for this is that those autos are going to have to slow down and share the road. This will have the effect of bottle-necking auto traffic quite a bit. And that's going to be a hard sell.
So...can it be done?
If we started writing to our state and federal legislators (and the various regulators) urging that we develop an alternative-friendly attitude (without mentioning MABs specifically), will that get us where we want to go?
(my own guess; probably, but it'll take a long time.)
Do we have other alternatives? maybe urging our states to follow Arizona's example is the better way to go. The pay-off (if we get it) would be quicker, but I'm afraid the risk is larger.
Is there a consensus on this in the MB community?
