Why do some car lovers oppose bike infrastructure, when more bikes would mean fewer cars on the road?
Like you sit in traffic for an hour each day to work. Wouldn’t you want to halve that by having more other people use bicycles instead?

Yeah but now they make what vehicles sell, and big shit sells now that the fat americans are used to it. They wont go back to small hatchback.
That’s an easy fix. Just jack up annual registration or taxes, but only for large trucks and SUVs, to $10K a year. Problem solved… Or make it a scale based on engine size, or total car width/length/height, whatever. It’s so easy to regulate… And in fact the US used to regulate large vehicles more strictly, so we already know that it can be done.
An astonishingly easy fix would be to just add a tax like a property tax based on vehicle weight. Make it scale enough to be prohibitive, but anyone who needs it will be willing to pay.
