Oh for sure. Car culture is a blight on the human spirit, its so ironic that being able to drive is associated with freedom, since it is a yoke around our necks.

The psychological effects are so toxically individualist, I'm driving down the road and someone is going below the speed limit, and I get frustrated, pass them, and see its some elderly person. My very first thought is "God who let's them drive" but then I realize they have literally no choice but to drive, or be driven. What if they have a Dr appt to go to? If they have double seeing or hearing, well we will just ignore that.

I take the vision test to drive without my glasses and I straight up can not fucking see. But I pass the test no problem. Scary stuff
