Exactly. Which is why people who ate on the opposite end of the extreme, insisting that all cars of all kinds must be banished, are so annoying.
There's no one size fits all system, so stop with the "everyone should just ride the bus or train you don't need cars" rubbish. Neither extreme are correct. We live in the real world.
We should make it such that people don't need cars though.
So how would you get a handicapped person to a specialized doctor in the center of a city with f-ed up public transport?
EDIT: The downvotes show me that you don't have any meaningful answers to that real-world problem.
So, fucked up public transport is a necessity?
