Not only would we have less medical issues if people began biking or walking more, but we would cut down on fuel consumption, pollution, and city beautification would be enhanced as well as more social opportunities being available to actually get out and meet people.

That being said, I think electric cars will take over in large cities like NY where you only need to drive 5-15 miles a day.
Also, its only convenient for people who live close to their jobs. I dont think that's the norm... At least not where I am...
