I try, I really do, to use public transit whenever I can. But a large majority of the time it will cost over twice the cost of driving, take over twice as long, and the final stop will be over a mile from my destination. Two of those caveats I could probably live with; all three makes it a non starter.

Admittedly, I live in a car centered American city.

    Thats exactly why so many people think EVs are the only solution. They have never actually experienced fast, efficient, convenient, and clean public transit. The vast majority of the US thinks public transit equals an hourly bus thats never on time and reeks of piss, and thats a fair view because for many thats all they have ever been offered.
