No, but I can offer an anti-quote:


"...there is no stigma attached to travelling by tram in Zurich; indeed,
anyone who does not use the tram  tends to be regarded as out of touch."

"Our politicians make regular use of public transport (not just at
election times) and leading figures from economic and academic life
would not consider commuting in any other way."
