I mean while we're at it we should dramatically reduce the necessity and prevalence of cars. Car culture sucks socially, economically, and ecologically.
And yet still there isn't really a good alternative... Public transportation is slow and annoying, trains are near impossible for America to create now and still also have the issue of there only being certain times you can use it.
It took decades to get into this car hell and it's going to take decades to get out. There would need to be some short term pain for long term gain. Unfortunately that is like humanity's top weakness.
I live in NYC and use public transit every day. It's not perfect but I'd take it over a car-first model any day.
