Why would wheelchair bound people have to pay so much more to get car they can use, when they can pay the same price as everyone else for a ticket to ride with public transportation?
Also there are blind and other handicapped people that can easily ride public transport on their own, but would have to rely on others to ride with their own car.
Public transport is especially useful for the handicapped and elderly compared to personal cars.
@Lv_InSaNe_vL@Malfeasant I’m happy to limit the ‘no personal cars’ to areas that are 1/4 acre blocks and below. (Remembering that a 1/4 acre block gets back a substantial amount of useful land when you delete the driveway, so blocks all become ‘bigger’ in such a system)
Places that are substantially less dense than that do benefit from cars. But that isn’t that large a % of people, while it is a very large % of the land mass.

They answered that
And truthfully, for a not insignificant part of the country, it won’t be. Population densities just wouldn’t support it.
Basically, because they have no choice. More public transportation is choice.
Yes it’s definitely 100% a reasonable choice for people who don’t even technically live in cities. Absolutely

10% of Americans live in towns of under 10000 people.
I wouldn’t call that “insignificant” lmao
