the history of cars in the US is pretty complicated tbh. most major cities had street cars and rail systems for a long time before major government initiatives ripped them out in favor of highways and streets. I'm not sure cars would be as popular without that major push towards car-centric infrastructure.
Of course. If you can't drive a car anywhere cars would not be as popular. That doesn't sound like rocket science to me.
