Not The Bee reports on the war on cars.

It’s a lengthy article, well worth reading in its entirety, but the money quote is this one, from a 1990 interview with the-then Chairman of Volvo, Pehr Gyllenhammar three months after the Berlin Wall had been torn down “and smoky little Trabants were swarming all over western Germany, as easterners discovered for themselves the freedom decades of Communist rule had prevented them from enjoying.”

The car is unique; it gives human beings a mandate to go wherever they want, whenever they want ….If the car was invented today, I doubt whether our governments would allow ordinary people to have such freedom.
