Yeah, sounds like a tough sell. Instead, let's persuade people to vote for politicians who support funding rail, bike, and ped infrastructure at par with or even with priority over car infrastructure.

My eldest (who travels to school by train every day) has children in his class who are brought to school every day in their parents cars. I know most of these kids, almost all of them live in villages with a regular bus service which would take them to school, yet instead the children get a lift with Mum or Dad in the car.

I'm not sure this is just about more infrastructure. There are some pretty seriously ingrained habits at play, too.
