OK.

Question: how do you propose I get to work? It's 15 miles, there are no trains, the buses are far too convoluted and take about 2 hours each way (no I'm not kidding), and "move house" is obviously going to take too long ("hey boss, some rando on the internet said "stop using cars" so do you mind if I take indefinite leave to sell my house and buy a closer one?").

There should be viable mass transit. This is a systemic problem.

Sure, but the challenge was "Don't use cars", not "Don't use cars where there is viable mass transit in place".
