Because you have no choice? It would be very fortunate in mass transit hating America to be able to avoid needing a car. It costs more to be poor than it does

It costs more to be poor than it does to be rich. Poor people can't afford to wait for sales and deals. They buy three crappy $30 pairs of shoes instead of one nice $60 pair of shoes because they live paycheck-to-paycheck. They will take the best car that they can find because maybe they can't save up $2000 all at once to buy a cheap used car.

Sure it sucked needing to ask for rides from friends when I needed to get some place that was too far for my bike and didn't mesh with bus route/schedule. But it is totally possible to do it.
