More reasons: It makes the world uglier, noisier, and homogenized. It makes urban regions hostile to families with children. It creates a constant feeling of stress and aggression (road rage) It requires a surveillance state, a police state, and thousands of laws that all must be followed precisely to uphold. And this takes away justice system resources that could be used for other things. The roads must constantly be under construction, adding annoyance and expense for everyone. Congestion wastes innumerable hours of our lives. Not great with kids because car seats are expensive, annoying to install, and keeps you more tied to one vehicle because ridesharing and rentals don't always have them. They are an attractive target for thieves because they are among the single most expensive things people own and you can use the loot itself to escape. It comes with an endless barrage of annoyances for the drivers: parking fees, tolls, insurance, tickets, license renewals, city stickers, emissions tests, maintenance, car washes, refueling, getting towed, getting booted, etc.
