Its not quite that simple. There are many people who own cheap 2nd hand cars that live in low income housing. I personally know a few cyclists that are independently wealthy, that own a fleet of bicycles that collectively cost more than the average car.
Cars and bicycles are not the enemy, its a lack of communication and cooperation between the humans that use these machines.
Humanity has an increasing sense of entitlement that is not sustainable.
