What are you supposed to do if you like to take trips to places hundreds of miles away?
Here we are, a crowd of folks that solve hard software and hardware problems everyday, and this is all it takes to stump you?

Ah, I see the disconnect. Then just drive. Whether one you own, rented, Zipcar. I don't see where it is proposed that you can't drive the kids to Yosemite. You just can't drive them to downtown, where there's a ton of buses, trains, or what have you, and a car isn't needed and there's too damned many cars already. I own a car. Several, in fact. And an RV. But I don't drive any of them to downtown Seattle. I rarely drive any of them the 7 miles to work.
In Switzerland, you won't find many places further than 10-15 minutes walk from a transit stop, and all the transit options are integrated so the bus is timed to connect with the train which is timed to connect with the boat which is timed to connect with the cable car, and they're all covered by your monthly/annual transit pass.
