I live in Copenhagen, and I prefer public transport (primarily buses) because I don't have to worry about finding and paying for a parking space or getting home drunk from a night out. It's also significantly less expensive than owning a car. I spent 4x the cost of my transit card[1] every month in gas alone, never mind maintenance and insurance costs.
I would have to walk significantly further from most parking garages to where I'm going, that from the nearest bus stop.
This talk of banning certain people is nonsense. The whole point of public transport is that it's for everyone. And what you're suggesting with "multi passenger vehicles" already exist in many countries. Here we call the "telebus", and it's working quite well in less densely populated areas. Just you know, without the rampant disregard for workers that Uber and Lyft display.
