Yep. Transit is ALWAYS slower on average compared to cars. It is faster only in a very narrow set of circumstances.
Try an experiment: drop 10 random points inside a city, and plot routes between them for cars and transit (you can use Google Maps API). Transit will be on average 2-3 times slower, even in the rush hour.

Try an experiment: don't give over the entire public space to cars, so there's no on-street parking, no surface parking lots, and the driving routes are narrow, and always give priority to people outside a car without them having to wait while pedestrian crossings give priority to cars, and then compare.
