No they don't, motorcycles encourage the same city design (my fundamental problem with cars) and are even louder. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZdDYVjDwgwA
they make far better use of existing car infrastructure
You're thinking of a bus.
they work too, yea. personally i get bus sick. it's light rail or two wheels for me
Don't forget about ebikes being an option. They aren't too fast or loud (legal ones anyways, just because you can buy it doesn't make it street legal). They still help close the time gap between cars and bikes in cities. I love my ebike and its cheaper to own and operate than any motor vehicle.
