I'd say that was exactly who he was picturing...as people who use Uber & Lyft.

I think the point he is making isn't that cities can get rid of cars. It's that the majority of people who use these new services can _probably_ just use public transport.

that's right. But in Madrid families also use buses and trains to go to the center because it's faster and more convenient than car+parking. In Tokyo too. It's just a matter of investing in public transportation, and wanting a cleaner city.
