Good. We need less cars on the road. The main problem is that every car is just single or double occupancy. We need a major policy shift away from car centric planning. This I recognize is going to be a fight against auto manufacturer and by extension oil companies. But we need to do this now for our future.

Include insurance in on that too.

Some insurances charge more for two seaters/doors as they are the more sporty ones. Ones with more seats and/or doors are thought more to be "family cars" where sporty/erratic driving styles would be less common.
