0.1% really?<p>I live in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. 25% of households here have no car, and we don&#x27;t have the world&#x27;s best transit system.<p>Per <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogs.wsj.com&#x2F;economics&#x2F;2014&#x2F;01&#x2F;21&#x2F;vital-signs-more-households-dont-own-a-car&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;blogs.wsj.com&#x2F;economics&#x2F;2014&#x2F;01&#x2F;21&#x2F;vital-signs-more-h...</a> it&#x27;s over 9% of households that don&#x27;t have a car- and of course the average size of a household is above 1, so your fake statistic is two orders of magnitude off from reality.<p>You&#x27;re welcome to be hyperbolic, but especially among engineers making up probabilities that have no bearing on reality feels more like intellectual dishonesty than hyperbole.<p>I think a lot of the HN demographic is completely out of touch with the fact that a lot of people simply can&#x27;t afford a car.
