Me, with no bus with a route from my bumfuck nowhere town to my work a 20 minute backwoods drive in some equally Fuckwoods, Nowhere town:
Ever maybe think that maybe... JUST MAYBE!!! some people don't actually want to live in a 10000 person/mile area and want a different life with trees or fields around them instead of more endless asphalt?
For those people, vehicles are the bridge between wanting to live around nature and not starving to death.
If you're commuting from Bumfuck to Fuckwoods, you should drive*. Nobody cares! There are so few people like you that it doesn't fucking matter what you do!
The issue is that people like you need to quit pretending your snowflake exceptions are an excuse to fail to solve the problem for the vast (80%!) majority of people who live in metro areas and are therefore not like you.
(* Actually you should just move to Fuckwoods, but that's not the point.)
Literally the definition of an edge case, but consider this, if you never had a car you would have never been in that situation to begin with.
