People will use public transport instead of cars when it costs less, it is more convenient, and it is safer. Most people don't want cars, they need cars. When your bus is 30 minutes late for weeks, months, and years on end, you will look into getting a car. When there are homeless people sleeping on buses, you will look into getting a car. When there are mentally ill people threatening other passengers on buses, you will look into getting a car. When there are drug addicts smoking weed or meth on buses, you will look into getting a car. When there are sociopaths listening to music on their speakerphone or otherwise being very loud on buses every day, you will look into getting a car. When you are assaulted or robbed at bus or metro stations, you will look into getting a car. etc etc etc It's not complicated.
