I agree, but it doesn't seem like they have the guts to do so, unfortunately.

The pedestrian sectors of some European cities are very nice, but they still have motor vehicle access to those parts of the city in other areas. Not all cities are the same, and I still believe it is unreasonable to cut off motor vehicle access to entire sections of a city.
I was merely talking about banning all private cars from the inner cities, especially from all streets with only two lanes. Commercial vehicles should still be allowed to drive around where they need to. I dont see a problem with mopeds, scooters and motorcycles in the inner cities either, as long as they have 4 stroke engines.
