In Switzerland only very few people of my social circle own a car and the fast majority of them needs it for work. Compared to neighbouring countries having a car is not even that expensive.

It's just a lot more confident to use public transport mostly because it's cheap and just great.

I think people will learn to use public transport options once it's affordable, reliable and everywhere.

As counter example Austria where I know a lot more people with cars. Their public transport isn't bad but expensive and unreliable.
