I'm European, pretty much every single one of our cities are walkable regardless of country...but try moving around outside of major city centers or not between the major cities. flexibility and usability crumbles immediately. Transport times are absurdly long compared to distances as soon as you don't move in/out of a major city (or god forbid, to/from a smaller town), often completely impossible requiring huge detours (often in to the city centers and out again) to get where you're going.
Yeah, cars are the way to go for rural transport. Doubt any bus or tram network can be comparable.
This is not even rural by any means...this is moving around in the suburban areas surrounding Copenhagen, or small-medium towns (20-30k inhabitants) and its vicinity.
Dunno about areas surrounding Copenhagen but 20-30k is really rather too small for transit systems. They would definitely be better served by cars and buses+cycles.
During office rush hour, it would be nice if you could cycle to a bus stop on highway, park it there and get bus to downtown.
