I don't think NJB is arguing against the use of cars outside the city (although he's a big fan of trains, naturally). But also don't forget it's not just bougies living in the city, it's working-class people too, who often can't afford to have a car in the city and so need properly working public transport.

This is a channel mostly about city layout and urban development. What he really argues for is changing cities and providing alternatives, not flat out banning cars.
