“Giving people more viable alternatives to driving means more people will choose not to drive, so there will be fewer cars on the road, reducing traffic for drivers.”

Concise, easy to understand, and accurate. I have used it at least a dozen times and it is remarkable how well it works.

Also—

“A bus is about twice as long as a car so it only needs to have four to six passengers on board to be more efficient than two cars.”

      Maybe don’t identify with the demographic the term applies to since it’s entirely by choice and such a stupid thing to base your identity around.

        As a carbrain myself, I like the name. I would enjoy the irony of a bumper sticker with it.

        On topic though, I can’t imagine a valid argument AGAINST better public transportation. Everything about it would make us carbrains’ driving experience safer and just…better.
