Yeah, when public transport is done well, people _don't want to drive_. I live in London, I have a driver's license, and I haven't driven a car since I got it years and years ago. Why would I? Instead of having to focus on the incredibly menial tasks of staring at a road or being stuck in traffic, I can browse Hacker News and Reddit, read a book, or even play video games, while I ride a nice double-decker bus, or get from A to B in half the time it takes to drive, with the tube (underground trains). We have 24/7 buses all week long, and some trains run 24/7 during weekends. While London is pretty good, it isn't even the best example of trains, there are several Asian countries with better train systems than we have here, and we're like the only(?) Northern/Western European country that doesn't publicly fund our capital city's public transport organisation, TFL -- it could be both cheaper _and_ better if we followed their lead.
