Personally I think it's a good thing, why would you take a bike or public transport if driving is so easy to get from A to B? Stevenage is a perfect example of this as @skydancer pointed out.
If you remember the chaos of the Olympic where locals people finally start to feel like a second class citizen, the traffic was great, more people cycle (we sold a huge number of Bromptons at the time), lots of people walked.
Buses and tubes appear to be quite busy, but they're always over capacity anyway.
