Absolute crap*. This "We live in a Motorist Supremacist society" rubbish is just made up by people who wish to see even more anti- motorist measures than we've already got. Cars are very useful, and for that reason the majority of people use them, and that's something that those who dislike freedom and individual choice just need to get over.
