Actually, you can, Niemeyer and Co. (Corbusier, Moses, etc.) were responsible for this prioritization. There was the silly dream that people should adjust to city planning, and not the other way around. Lucky, modernist city planning died out in most of the world. One only needs to walk through Brasilia or the suburbs of Paris to see the abomination that it became: "...the car would abolish the human street, and possibly the human foot. Some people would have aeroplanes too. The one thing no one would have is a place to bump into each other, walk the dog, strut, one of the hundred random things that people do ... being random was loathed by Le Corbusier ... its inhabitants surrender their freedom of movement to the omnipresent architect."
