Public policy is failing at the moment, so you have to take matters into your own hands. If enough people do this, then it will effectively become public policy. Inaction is not a solution.

I personally am, but there's only so much I can do. I am involved in our regional planning commission for transportation, and routinely write letters and call my representatives. I may donate some money to some of our local transportation organizations, but I'm not sure that's a good use of money yet so I haven't.

I agree with you in general though that public policy is failing. Specifically it's failing here where we continue to engage in and direct poor public policy positions because the government is very entrenched and addicted to spending taxpayer dollars. Asking the public to continue to play a catch up game of voiding their car warranty instead of actually solving the problem via policy is, in my view, simply not going to work.
