I think that it's close to impossible to live in this city without a car, unless everyone you know lives very close to you. I think more people should focus on living close to their work, which would eliminate the amount they use their car, but wouldn't stop them from doing so altogether.
From my experiences living inner city, the ability to walk to work frees up at least an hour of my time a day. Personally, I would ditch my car and walk everywhere, except there's 2 things holding me back:
1. All of my friends and family do not live in the inner city, therefore to see them via transit would take much, much longer.
2. I fataing hate walking anywhere when it's -10 or below.
