Cars don't scale. People get around in high density cities without cars just fine. It saves money and it's better for the environment, too.

And, yet, most high density cities also have a huge amount of automobile traffic in addition to whatever public transportation they have. (Although, depending upon the city, a significant portion of that auto traffic is cabs--in part because of the expense/difficulty of parking.)
