    I think the problem is also that we equal driving our own car as a sign of success and status, esp with electric cars not being affordable for the average buyer. As long as cars = im a successful person, the transportation structure will be centered around cars and motorized transports.

      This may be true in Europe and in cities for those who both live and work in the city. But for the vast majority in the U.S. It’s practically required to have a car if you want to work.
