I've been to Seattle and didn't see any problem with the public transportation. Those buses with trolley poles are cool!

(The reality is that not every city has the population and demand to have a Tokyo-like subway system. Sometimes, buses are enough.)

I lived in Seattle for 6 years, 2 of which were completely car free. It's possible, but you're swimming upstream. I'm now in NYC, and it is far easier.
