    1. Most cities don’t have adequate public transit. They’ll put in a couple of buses and 1 rail line and be like “Public transit doesn’t work, it costs millions of dollars and no one uses it!” without considering that people don’t use it because it doesn’t take them where they need to go. If it can’t replace their car or guarantee them faster transit to where they’re going, then what’s the point?

    2. The auto industry has successfully created a culture of personal vehicles as a sort of status symbol. If you don’t have a car, people assume you’re poor. Same way people will shame you if don’t take out a $20k loan to buy your fiancee a giant diamond to symbolize your love for them.
