Raw LLM Responses

ebikes are actually a practical solution to the poor designs of modern cities most cities are small enough and fairly flat with speed limits below 20-25MPH on average my ebike can range from 15-20 MPH with the legal limit rather than the expert rating of 750w, half of what would be ideal for me if more people like me existed, we would have devices that take up less than HALF of a car lane, and they would be pulled into garages homes instead of parking spaces sadly without bike racks and with a legal limit at half of what it should be for wattage we won't have much adoption for a few years/decades it will take a sharp uptick in driverless car deaths vs human driver deaths to force personal transit devices and to force cities to replace 90% of roads with busses and trams and subways in fact, electric subways are one of the smartest solutions to congestion 1: they are often elevated or underground, so not using roads 1: they are often electric(because combustion underground would lead to toxic levels of fumes) 1: they are people-only, so they don't contribute to trivial delivery orders 1: they are mass-transit, so the tend to be highly cost-efficient once built 0.5: they tend to need parking tracks if not autonomous, which they can be 1: very low chance of any collisions, as long as people don't play on the tracks during an incoming train take busses 0: they use roads, that is a point lost 0: they CAN be electric, but a lack of fixed routes with lines it can tap from leads to battery use, and so a requirement for infrastructure to provide MW level charging at the hubs, or battery swap equipment(let alone battery wear being fast with that kind of usage) 0.5: they tend to stop for people on bikes or grocery runs, so tend to be used for a lot of cargo, just not trivial deliveries 0.9: they are mass transit with undefined stops for egress,(not good or bad, they still have defined pickup stops and often do have defined egress as well) 0: large depots are required to hold them 0.5: high chance of bored human driver missing something, might be safer with an AI vehicle in a defined route and rules ebikes: 0.5: they use roads, but are half or less in width required if the road is straight without obstructions 1: they are 100% electric, though if you require it you can get micro engines for longer treks or just fun factor, not bad, just not perfect 0.9: they are used for trivial cargo, however it requires you to actually want to go out for small trips, and parking is way smaller than cars and the width and speeds cause less wear than all other methods of transit making them a clear choice for longevity and avoiding trivial purpose congestion 0: they are a per-person use 1: they have a 0% space requirement in parking or external storage, mainly because they are small and often taken into structures for storage/repair 0.5: human driver, but due to the sheer complexity of balance and effort, the danger is more of fatigue than in boredom causing unseen obstacles(fixed by deleting wattage laws and replacing with 100% speed limit laws, like all cars do already, and all ebikes are capable of, and most users already configure because of bike stability variations(like my bike that is unstable beyond 25mph, so that is the limit set)) cars 0: road use 0.1: very few are electric due to the extreme cost of such large batteries, and the lack of easy replacement of worn packs(could be fixed with mandatory repair ease legislation) 0.1: single user is common with 4+ seats and cargo space that is unused most days, fixed in some neighborhoods by having personal vehicles that carry a full load of people with no cargo and they share a work vehicle for large cargo 0.1: not mass transit, few people even consider carpooling, same as above 0: parking/garage required, worse when it is a single-person use 0.1: human driver, but made worse by drivers who simply do not follow traffic laws, like ALWAYS using signals when turning, so many don't bother, making it hard for pedestrians/bikers to know what you intend a-cars: same as cars except -1: ai has to be trained for much longer when changes occur, making the transition period exceptionally dangerous, or making us avoid critical changes to improve safety or usability of cities -0.1: they operate using road space and parking without carrying passengers or cargo at all half the time -1: they get stuck in complex situations that they were not trained on, like road work and imprecise placement of road barriers during repairs so yeah, the best solution is probably small ebikes with better laws the second best is trains and busses, possibly with AI and defined "passengers ready to board" beacons, so they can go faster and have an app/web tracker to let you know the ETA for the LATEST arrival at the stop, so you might have a faster trip, and can dispatch more busses based on how full they are and safety is higher than a SDC because they have defined routes, so less training is required and the operator required for cash won't get the health risks of sitting in a single spot forever, we could use people at dispatch runing rotating shifts to monitor a set of busses for odd behavior
