Remove pedestrians, biking and transit because they take up car space. Now everyone drives and you're 45 minutes stuck in traffic.

As long as I'm in my 18 wheeler pick up truck that takes up 2 lanes and consumes more gallons of gas than a whole pump in the middle east can produce in a day every week, I'm happy!

One of the best features of Waze GPS, is it gives you a countdown counter when you get stuck in traffic.
At one point I had a 55min commute using transit but would usually get hard by weather as 2 of my stops didn't have cover. Also the occasional meth/fent heads, missed connections, overcrowding...
Or sit in my car on a 45min commute.
Eventually I met it halfway by joining a vanpool but that shit still cost more than mass transit and got expensive when my employer cut transit vouchers.
✨ externalized costs ✨
You saved 10 minutes of time and some personal convenience, and made the world worse for everyone else.
To be fair, I think depending on your mood and weather it can in fact be nicer to be sitting in a climate controlled box with a nice chair and a stereo system
Even better would be sitting in a climate-controlled box, with a nice chair, and a good stereo system... at home, relaxing after a nice walk.
Sometimes you don't want to go for a walk, it can be because you're tired, or because the weather sucks. At that point public transit is best, but depending on how big your town/city is it may not be feasible to fund it properly.
Hiking in the arctic pulling a sled with all your gubbins.. or having 12-16 fluffy doggos pull you and the sled for the love of the game?
