Can we not just get rid of the traffic instead?

And what, move everything online and plug ourselves into the matrix?

Bikes, trains, busses, scooters, pedestrians, ... are all traffic.

So if you want to move around the world, you will need traffic.

Two of those are mass transit and the rest don't make very much noise.

50cc scooters are the worst, actually. Nothing like hearing the high-pitch squealing sound comparable to a leaf blower in your ear at 3am. I’d gladly see them banned from the city.
