Will development continue if there will be no more cars?

I believe that the modern world's development will halt if there will be no more cars. Land transportation is essential to the businesses. Oil which is the currency of the world would be of no value at all.

First of all, oil should never had been a currency. Money was always based on Gold, not oil. I think that the auto industry is doing a good job in creating alternative fuel vehicles and electric cars. I do believe that they will create a car that will not need any oil based fuel for energy. The sun is strong and water is also something to look into. I also do not think the world would be without cars. They will always be around.

They have the technology to make a vehicle run on water if they want to. But it is all a money game. It's like when cd's came out. They were obsolete the day they hit the market. If they make a vehicle that runs on water, the oil companies would be out of business and they will be real upset like little cry babies. I do not think we will see anything progressive in our lifetimes. Maybe sometime in the future.

OF course they can make a car which can run through water. A Filipino inventor once created that kind of machine. It can break down every part of h2O. The hydrogen that is then created can be used to power the car. The public and the government didn't buy it though. Most probably because of oil companies.

Oil Industry is a malty Billion Billion dollar Industry. That is the main reason why no electric cars are in production. Dont worry Worlds development is and will be built around the availability of Oil.

And what if every drop of oil is gone and used up already? I was supposed to be asking about what's gonna happen if there will be no more cars. I wasn't asking if there would still be oil in the coming days.
