Quite a while in the areas that are not urban jungles with 5 million plus populations.
I can sometimes drive three miles and not see another vehicle. Oklahoma City "metro area" is over 1,000 square miles, and a population of about a million. I can drive for 30 minutes and not get to the city limits if I go west. And I am not even close to to east edge of the city.
Montana and the Dakotas will need private cars long into the future long after I am gone.
Now for LA or NYC, they have government run mass transit now. How well does that work?
