Not really. Cars allowed for distance, cargo capacity and speed to increase dramatically. This potentially saves you a couple of minutes per day. Maybe significant from a proportional perspective, but not in an absolute sense.

Yep, and I'd even argue that transportation is still not a solved problem (cars are expensive, we waste a lot of time driving them, etc).
