For sure, we need to work on that. But most people aren't travelling across their province, or even between cities on a regular basis.

They drive their cars around their community. Down the street to the grocery store. Up the road to visit a friend. They might work within 5km of their home and take a large SUV.

That's the reason we have massive parking lots taking up ungodly amount of space, or on street parking instead of bike lanes, or noise and air pollutions near residential areas.

Those personal choices can be modified today, even with whatever infrastructure is present.

And most people don't realize that if we weren't spending so much money on car infrastructure, we'd have more than enough to put towards other forms of transportation - at a benefit to society, which also reduces costs in other areas like healthcare.
