It's true there's an extremely strong car culture in Dallas (and the rest of Texas) for reasons of weather and geography. But the bike shares in Dallas are concentrated in the denser areas full of boutiques, restaurants, museums, etc. The idea is not to replace cars so much as allowing you to park once and then get around on the bike. The issue that's immediately apparent to anyone who actually goes there is that the sidewalks are littered with dozens of bikes, most of which have tipped over. The docks at least force you to keep the bikes somewhat organized and out of the way.
