These three things just show me that either the move away from private cars is still not on the Councils agenda, despite their rhetoric, or that Council is trying to move to a driverless culture by skipping valuable alternatives in the evolution.
Car2go shouldn't be subsidized by people who drive downtown and pay for parking. If Car2go is going to be a viable alternative to owning a private vehicle it should have a cost structure that covers the use of city parking.

The whole cab situation is a joke, the monopoly will be broken eventually.
