10 questions to any transportation expert:
- If air travel becomes easier, won’t we make this more unsustainable?
- Should the people who bicycle get an exemption from some taxes?
- How do you balance the time, money and environment factor? Situations like you are in a hurry to go somewhere, you book a single cab. A single cab does more harm than a shared cab.
- Can there be cars where a person can sit straight not in a convex posture?
- Does having a lot of money make you ignorant towards the environment ? Should we charge those people more who makes noise with lamberodgini or noisy Royal Enfields?
- How many years are we far away from cardless travel or ticket buying travel? Like sensors recognizing you and charging you accordingly.
- When there will be more self-driving cars, should the age of driving be lowered?
- Some cities are not planar so how do you bicycle there? Electric bikes are one option but is there any other solution?
- Should the universities ban 4 wheelers on their campuses?
- Is there any effect of people playing arcade or racing games? Any research on this?
