"In tyrannizing the city, it (the automobile) has destroyed many essential
urban qualities. It has spawned the endless monotony of sprawling suburbia
along with other development, billboards, etc. But the automobile has made
a positive contribution to our environment, particularly in terms of the visual
experience."
The car is the means of transport that causes the most impacts, which is more
expensive, and the one that consumes the most energy.
I also think that cars, even if people think it benefits them, create chaos. Traffic,
noise, smoke, insecurity in the areas as they can be violently attacked to steals
cars. Anyway, I think that focusing on Car Development is not right. It is helpful on
the one hand, but negative on the other.
A good visual environment should not only be seen in the amount or development
of cars but rather in buildings, parks, places of public use. An artist who thinks
about urban growth, would focus on doing something that generates a common
benefit in people and not only to a individual through the acquisition (which is very
expensive) of these cars.
Developing in the urban area by changing the visual environment of man would be
a good decision that would help the optimal development of urban areas around
the world.
