I'm not talking a bus system, or some kind of delivery system, or any of the things you mention. I use the bus every day. I also own a car, not by choice, and I wouldn't if it hadn't been somewhat forced on me. In urban settings cars are the poorest transportation option. I rank subways first, then bikes, then buses. Cars a distant fourth.

What I meant is something different, though. My point is that less people care about cars in a memento sense than ever, which will ease in the rise of the self-driving car (if it happens at all). That's all I meant.
