OK so no ambulances or fire trucks then?
What do you propose to do when an apartment complex catches fire? Bucket brigade to put out the fire and handheld stretchers for the burn victims?
Also delivery vehicles are always relevant. They are everywhere, delivering the goods to the last mile of their destination. They will always be needed until something like Star Trek replicators can materialize goods directly into the home.
You’re reading what I said as literally the complete opposite to what I said. What I was saying was that the anti-car movement is generally fine with things like delivery vehicles (and emergency vehicles for that matter), because those things are a small percentage of the vehicles on the road. Hence “the point is not literally zero motorized road vehicles”.
The point is to make car use unnecessary for the average person, and create and promote safe and comfortable alternatives to driving. Saying “You should not have to drive to reach your place of employment, or the grocery store” is not even close to “get rid of fire trucks and ambulances”. Declaring them the same is little more than making a strawman.
