I guess it’s funny for you to

I guess it’s funny for you to make fun of someone from a minority working class neighborhood who probably needs a car for work or to get groceries and bring their little kids/ baby with them because they can’t afford a sitter. Now the person who you are mocking has to work overtime to pay for car repairs, or be late on bills or skip buying prescription meds. You’re an elitst snob who can’t see beyond their privileged bubble.

Boy, that's reading a lot into my comment.

I don't actually disagree with you, except for the part where you think you're disagreeing with me.

I kinda see where you got that, but I was making a joke about the usual "cars are more important than people" attitude that gets either mocked or praised in traffic-related stories.
