The last miles are a huge problem in villages. Train stops and you then walk 5 miles every time? The bus needs to ride every 30 minutes to bring along 5 people that’s super expensive.

Also everyone there already has a car anyways since it’s basically required there.

Cities however can use public transport far more efficiently.

you do realize trains are part of the public transport and no reasonable person would think you can’t take a car to the train station?

what do you think I am talking about? a bus going every 30 minutes to every house in bumfuck nowhere on the off chance they get a passenger?

Yes but then you already have the car.

And if you already have the car then that’s usually far more practical than public transport.

Public transport works well in cities because it can completely eliminate the need for someone to own a car.
