Iwant a essay on cities are for people, not cars

When man was alone, man found out that there are things that he can't do such as taking down bigger preys as food source. This is when man worked with another man. They produced greater results. This gave way to forming a team and working together to produce even greater results. This led to a settlement, a tribe, then to villages and eventually to cities and even countries and empires and to a whole new complication of things.

Cities are built around man. They serve their purpose. The main thing would be to shelter man and provide home. It was designed intellectually that the area of the land be utilized for production, the proximity of the shelters would be close so as to readily help one another, roads and pavements were strategically build to access all amenities of the city, and so on. As cities grew in size, the time to travel between a place and another place in the city also grew which gave way to transportation, especially cars.

This modern times, cars have already dominated the streets. The road for people is significantly smaller than the road for cars. A building is demolished or even made smaller just to give way for the road to be extended for cars to move around. Yes, cars are of great help in transportation but the advancement of the city shouldn't be focused around on it, but on the people. It makes you take back what you said earlier about roads being strategically built because of how it turned out on the modern times. The question still remains, are cities built for people or are they now built for cars?
