Imagine: you're at the end of a cul-de-sac, ten miles from anything you need like a grocery store or a doctor, and there's only one 55-70 mi/h road connecting them. Now imagine you also don't have a car.
We don't even need government to restrict people's movement; car companies, 70 years of terrible land use policy, and good ol' fashioned NIMBYism did it for us.

It's not terrible land use policy. Cars and suburbs are amazing for our quality of life. But yes people are given too much power to control the natural development of locations.
