I don't really want to be involved in public transport people fuck on. But other than that you're describing trains. Busses are for short distance travel which I don't personally think requires much more luxury than a seat and a window.
Well, let's put it differently. Cars are not just about going from A to B. Most use people get out of them is storing stuff and moving it without effort, safely. Public transport doesn't offer that. "Fucking" here stands more for a bunch of stuff that people do otherwise in cars that requires some privacy you don't get on trains.
The point is, trains are the minimum tolerable environment for most people, and already not tolerable for others
