If you are worried about the environment there are far more effective approaches we could use, like increasing density to reduce transport emissions.

Yeah, but apparently building out public transport pits you against the petroleum industry (which has held sway in the US over a century).

This isn't an either-or, it's a case where special interests have shot down the more efficient approaches, so we're left with what we have.
