Mass transit hasn't done as well as individual cars in this country partly because of some dirty tricks by the auto manufacturers early on (e.g. payola to tear up trolley lines) and partly because this country's low population density has made it impossible to adequately serve the population at reasonable cost (higher population densities in Europe help make mass transit much more successful over there). Bandwidth is easier to deliver to low density areas than was transport, so might not suffer from the second of these effects. Politics and monopoly power can still cause problems, though, if vigilance slackens. JMHO.
