That's missing the point though. Sure it would be great to eliminate or greatly reduce the need for cars, but that's a fairly massive undertaking.
Whereas as it stands anyone who uses a car needs car insurance, the cost of which makes some private company and it's investors profit.
If instead there was a single national car insurance provider than it could be cheaper and that money could go back into the government's coffers rather than the pockets of private industry.

@gbargoud@masto.nyc @jeffowski@mastodon.world Nationalising car insurance wouldn't cost anyone who doesn't use a car anything, in fact it would probably create extra income for the government which could be spent on improving services for everyone.
