Evolution of Cities and the Role of Cars
Historically, cities have evolved continuously for thousands of years, incorporating lessons from each generation to create better environments. However, the introduction of cars around a century ago led to a shift in urban planning, where cities became overly reliant on cars, disrupting the traditional design principles. Now, there is a growing realization that while cars have their place in society, they are not ideal for urban mobility. As a result, there is a renewed focus on reimagining cities to optimize the use of cars within urban spaces, marking a return to understanding and utilizing this new technology more effectively.
