I was referring to the idea that most people commute by car, therefore there's no demand for transit and no reason to spend money on it.
People commute by car because it's
currently the best option.
If we gave transit the same resources as we devoted to cars (like having a rapid transit lane as part of the Kenaston), then it would be a better option and more people would use it.
Hence, which came first, the chicken or the egg? Do we wait for more people to use transit before we devote more resources to it, or do we devote more resources to it so that more people will use it?
