People were living in cities for many years before cars were invented, presumably at least some of them had children and were not young. Hell, people still live in modern cities around the world outside of the United States where car ownership rates are extremely low.

And people used to die from infection before antibiotics. What's your point?

I think you get the point. We have an existence proof that people don't need cars to live in cities. We don't need everything in the past to have been better than everything in the present for the logic to work. (People aren't driving cars to avoid infection.)
