Omg. Let's argue a once in a lifetime situation and use it as the reasoning for people driving daily let alone the whole environment point the ad is about.

It's one-in-a-lifetime situations that people typically try to account for. And the average person is likely to have more than one emergency in life that they need to be somewhere ASAP for.

Nah, most don't. Most don't have a plan when their cars don't start, emergency home repairs, or getting critically injured when nobody is home.

Car culture incentives you to want a car and to use a car. That's okay.
