But I don't see anything in the document that shows that people are using personal vehicles for deplacements they could have easily been made with public transportation. Which was your original point that I disagreeing with: people aren't 'brainwashed by cars', but rather can't practically use another way.

Also, according to one of the linked pdf, cars in Paris are barely for Paris-Paris movement, but more for Paris-suburbs, which is still the biggest weakness of the public transportation network.

If you need to go east-west of paris suburb, that's 1h in car, the same time in public transit. If you need to go north-south of paris suburb, that's 1h in car and 30 mins in public transit.
