My car goes from where I am, to where I want to be, when I want to go there, regardless of time or location.

Hahahaha absolutely not… well maybe in your fast and furious fantasy it does, in the real world everyone else has cars and wants to get places too so you end up in huge amounts of traffic going anywhere. Anywhere worth going becomes inundated with traffic to the point that it massively decreases people’s quality of life, anywhere with enough car infrastructure to actually handle the amount of cars on the road these days is fundamentally ruined by said infrastructure (8 lane highways, massive suburban sprawl with no density, culture or thought in general to pedestrians) and not worth going to. Cars make cities extremely loud (they are by far the biggest sources of the noise you stereotypically associate with cities), unsafe, difficult to navigate and destroy air quality all while taking up the vast majority of space on a street (and making the remaining space miserable to exist as a pedestrian in).

In places that have good mass transit people literally live a more vibrant existence with a higher quality of life than you because the design of the spaces they inhabit doesn’t prioritize cars over humans.

And before someone says “I live in the middle of nowhere South Dakota mass transit will never work”, good for you, the overwhelming majority of USians live in places NOT like where you live in the US. Keep driving your car, this isn’t a discussion about you. For the rest of us living in population centers, cars and especially self driving cars are just sad misguided obsessions with trying to solve a problem by doubling down on doing the very thing that causes the problem.
