      "Kills time": possible on each kind of pub. transit
      "Explore new sights": possible on trains or tour buses
      "Get nice air onto your face while driving": possible on trains (you can lean out of the window sometimes)
      Get stuck in a driving jam: possible on cars, but impossible on trains
      Die in an accident: possible in cars and trains either but chance is way lower in trains
      Air pollution: way bigger on cars (especially on pickup trucks)
      Danger for pedestrians: way bigger on cars
      Number of passangers that can be carried: not more than 6 on cars, around 60 on buses, 200-300 on trams and thousand or even more on trains.
      Is driving actually best thing ever?

    The bridge at 49:00 he went under. Only ever been to ny once. That is where we went, to get a puppy. All the way from worcester county ma. My mother had this thing for purebreds.
    Somewhere around there is where we got that dog. That breeder was not good, all of his cockerspaniels had rage disorders. State made us put ours down for bites and when we looked into it a lot of customers had the same issue.

    As an urbanist, I'm thrilled about the Brooklyn Heights Promenade at 41:31. It's a great idea to create a cantilever over the road to extend a walking area above it, while also hiding a significant part of the noise from the road. Bravo!
