Well, I love cars and like having one at my disposal. But yeah, driving to work would be awful, especially if it was more than a few kilometres. I can't fathom why some seem to think it's preferable. Personally I won't take a job that's more than a 20 minute train ride from the station 2 minutes from my apartment, and I resent losing even that amount of time. A hour-long commute in gridlocked traffic would drive me nuts.

Investment in public transport is expensive, sure, but it's better than the other option - forcing the costs to the individual level, where everything is far less efficient, not least in lost time.
