If you let people drive dangerously and illegally then taking a handful of cars off the road won't make a difference

I mean ideally it would given that there wouldn’t be the congestion that would make it dangerous. I get your point but I think you underestimate how many cars you can take off the road by having an adequately funded transit authority
