I wouldn't necessarily credit altruistic motives on the G'ovt's part. There are basically very few places in the US with anything close to the population density of Singapore. As a result, public transportation systems are prohibitively expensive in most places in the US. If they make autos too expensive to own for the average Joe, they'd have to build that infrastructure.
