Indeed. And that automobile industry is supported by a large segregationist population who loves living where the buses full of non-white poors don't reach. That and there's physical competition over road space for buses, as they require bus lanes. Bus lanes aren't car lanes, that's the point of bus lanes, and installing bus lanes is usually unpopular (due to all the car drivers who don't want to lose a lane or street parking).

What I'm trying to point out is that all sides of system matters, especially if there's some kind of democracy going on. Blame is distributed.
