It's definitely possible to build C:S cities that are "mostly transit" (and walking).

However, this only postpones the traffic nightmare. Eventually, the city grows to a point where the remaining ~20% of people using cars overwhelm even large, well-designed traffic systems.

Honestly, this seems depressingly realistic? Paris has lots of public transportion and walkable areas, and the Peripherique is still a traffic jam from hell.
