  density increases would have only happened near transit
But people near transit own cars, too... and, lacking off-street parking, will park on the street.

People near transit own less cars. They still own them I agree, but they do not own as many. When you don't have transit option you need enough cars for each driver, plus at least one backup. When you have transit options many get by with just one car which covers all the non-transit needs.
