Imagine unironically wanting to be locked into a desert where you can't escape except through a single highway road with a machine and gasoline

Are you an idiot? Cities have thousands of roads in&out. Suburbs are easy to be locked because a single road leads to the highway and few gas pumps are enough to centrally contol a whole region.

Nobody wants to ban them. You can own one and drive where ever you want. And due to people doing this more rarely you have more space on the road when you do so.

You're just a communist wanting big government to plan your life and control your life like a barbie-dream-house with pre-planned daily lives.

Internalized communism makes you want the government to plan your whole life beginning from the walmart you go to, which gas pump you use and where you are allowed to live your live in a square of 2k sq ft. I actually cannot comprehend how you want such a NPC life as a brick in the wall
