"No, a congested road is a road whose free-flow capacity has been exceeded. The vast majority of road congestion involves slower-moving traffic, not traffic that is at a standstill." And a full train is still moving people incredibly faster than a road "whose free-flow capacity has been exceeded."

"We have trillions and trillions of dollars of sunk cost in low-density, car-oriented urban forms. We're not going to give that up and start living and getting around like people did a hundred years ago." We have already given it up and started living and getting around like people did a hundred years ago. That train has already left the station.
