The point he makes is correct of course, but the way he does the comparison is not very honest. If he wants to compare to the maximum capacity of a tube train, he’d also have to take the maximum capacity of a car, not the average passengers.
It definitely depends on the country you’re visiting. The tube trains (and stations) in Paris are generally pretty gross but when I was in Copenhagen recently I was surprised by how clean everything was over there.

have you seen the trains at rush hour? they are usually filled with 200% capacity.
Are the tube trains always so dirty? I visited last year and that was my impression. Not the dirtiest I’ve seen but, yeah.
Not meaning to criticise or anything, where I’m from we barely have functional buses, nevermind having a metro.

But this is what happens. Every rush hour the roads are packed with cars, mostly just with one person in them, while the trains are actually full.
During rush hour you definitely won’t have a distance of 10 meters between each car though.
If they’re moving there should be, and if not it doesn’t seem fair to me to compare transport to a car park.
If the cars are moving at over 5m/s then there will be for minimum safe followong distance.
If they are moving under that, you don’t have a transport system that is more capable than a brisk walk.
