Private cars in cities.
They're noisy, unhealthy, cause massive damage to infrastructure, transport one person at a time while taking up enough space for ~10 in the road, fill open spaces for parking, sometimes while being completely unusable, endanger everyone else on the roads....

I'm a fan of a nested zone approach. City center, no cars, pedestrians, bikes and busses only.

A few blocks away, compact cars only.

A few more blocks from that, all cars, no trucks or SUVs

A few more from that, All cars trucks and SUVs allowed, no trailers.

Absolutely outer edge, drive whatever you want.
