Episode 2: Abundance in Transportation + Who Likes Cars Less (or More)

Abundance in Transportation – David & Wes take on the idea of abundance in transportation. What would an abundant transportation system look like? Why do so many policies end up producing scarcity instead? We also explore how well-intentioned rules can limit who feels safe, welcome, or able to move through a city. 

Today, we also talk about:
🔹 Which of us likes cars less (or more)
🔹 Bike helmet mandates & unintended consequences
🔹 The risk of a transit doom loop

And then we have a couple rail drinks... stay tuned for bi-weekly conversations about all things transportation!
