Maybe the key word there is 'owners'. If the price point of as-need 'personal' transportation, as opposed to scheduled and unreliable public transportation, is competitive with owner-driver cars, that might change as well. If parking costs becomes prohibitive, then that will start to impinge on cost of ownership. I can count on one hand the number of times I've driven to the city in the last 20 years. It's cheaper, even living in the outer burbs, to take public transport. There are many other drivers (no pun intended) on the equation.
