Im still surprised by the US car culture … im 26 and dont drive at all . I do live in a european city with middle of the road public transit at best , but i never had the need for a car , its a luxury i dont want nor need.
Key is that you think of it as a luxury, where Americans think of it as a luxury item and a necessity at the same time. They can’t fathom real public transit because they’ve never had it. It’s describing color to a blind person. Many have never left their few state radius, and few have even left the country, so anything different is terrifying and unknown to them. It’s what they know, and they have no idea what they’re missing.
