    Good videos with some very good insights.

    I normally only counted my own personal costs and those were already quite high for driving vs public transport where it was available. I think if most drivers use an app to count all their personal costs they might already be lenient towards more public transport.

    This one though is very abstract and will be very difficult to convince the normal driver. But if you look at that cost per mile, it is much worse than the own personal cost per mile.

        The video isn’t your cost per mile. It is the cost per mile on society as a whole per mode of transport

        1. Multiple peoples cost per mile should be aggregated to open up alternatives.

        2. Even if you only have one method of transportation, the distance you travel is still elastic.
