> moving furniture Either rent a van or pay a moving company. Its not like you do this every week and it will still be cheaper if you do this every few years than paying for your own car. > or even larger amounts of groceries that are infinitely harder without a car. In high density cities this just doesnt exist. Grocery shops are at worst a few blocks away, you can just go more often or just use your own shopping cart (or equivalent) > And then there is also the question of the environment on that public transport. IME "good enough that complaints remain manageable" seems to be the target here unlike a car where you can have private entertainment and air conditioning (not to mention sufficient ventilation) to whatever level you wish. I get air conditioning in my cities bus/light rail/subways and its on a acceptable average level And imo "entertainment" is a lot better in public transit where i can not only listen to music but also watch videos/read books/play games. When you are driving you shouldnt even be listening to an audio book since you could become distracted while operating your heavy machinery that can easily kill. > And even for relatively frequent public transit routes you end up wasting quite a bit of time waiting. Here subways/light rails comes every three to 10 minutes, this is not a problem.
