Electric cars are here to save the car industry. They still do significant damage to humans. Car tires are the number 1 cause of microplastics in the ocean.

100% agreed, to reduce the environmental impact of the transport sector, the top priorities need to be investing in public transport and moving cargo by rail rather than by road.

Better to stop subsidizing the latter than start subsidizing the former.
