Why will grounding the plane cause more people to drive? It does not have large enough share of existing planes to cause significant rise in prices to make people choose driving. Especially considering that it is used for long distance flights, which are more likely be replaced by train instead of car.

It still pushes the balance. Not everyone lives right by an airport and has a true destination right by an airport.
OR the planes doing the short-haul flights will now have to make these longer-haul flights, increasing the short-haul flight costs.
