Eh. Not denying that also cars have cons, but some pros are 1. sometimes the car is the best way/in the shortest time to get somewhere 2. You can carry much more with you if you have a car 3. It can be used as a place to sleep in 4. You can give lifts to people 5. Some work require to have a car (if you need to be in many different places in a day)

I myself don't have a driving license and I hope I never need one. I use public transportation and a bicycle to get around.

Dunno why loudness is a thing though. Reasonable volume should be advised.

Don't try being the voice of reason in /c/fuckcars - it's pointless.

It's just a dumb meme anyway.
