Much more so than having a car-centric infrastructure. If you start cherry-picking you’ll of course find cases where a car would have been more efficient but public transportation needs to be understood as a whole.
Uh, yes, actually. I know someone like you can’t even fathom the possibility of a public transit system being well-built because you’ve been gaslit into believing that whatever happens in The West is the best humanity can offer, but we’ve got 80 bus and trolley lines criss-crossing the city. As a guesstimate, three quarters of the city is within a 10-minute walk from a stop, and the elderly and disabled who can’t walk benefit from the resulting reduction in traffic.
Well if YOU have a bus stop near you then everyone must! That’s just science!
If you build it they will come

And all the world is cities! There’s noooooooooo other type of living. Your egocentric view of the world is going to carry you really far.
Public transport can, and does work in rural areas too.
