Cars are slower because they have to deal with so many stoplights and traffic jams.

Cars are slower because they have to deal with so many stoplights and traffic jams. Also, cars are FAR more expensive than trains. How much do you pay a month for your car? $800/month? People in spend $116 for unlimited train/bus rides. The biggest problem with cars, though, is that it requires manual labor to operate. You can't take a nap, or work on the computer, like you can on a train. You basically lose 2 hours a day because you need to drive. Multiply this by hundred million people, and it becomes an drain on the US economy. That's 200 million man-hours wasted per day.
