Over here that's not a problem, since we have vastly connected public transport and bicycle paths next to nearly every road.

In the US, losing your car is losing mobility almost entirely.

That's cute. Where, pray tell, is "over here"? I bet it isn't equal to 5% of the land mass of the US.

Lol, always that "we're big" bullshit.

I can take a train from the arctic circle to freakin Africa if I want.

Europe's public transport networks are almost ubiquitously dense across the continent.

Size has nothing to do with it.

The US used to have far denser train networks to begin with.

Now it's all but some freight tracks and inner city trains.
