To be honest, I like to travel by car. But, only in lower speeds and not on freeways/highways.
I've always been kinda scared of driving a car in a freeway or a highway. While in inner urban city areas, where traffic is more crowded, etc. I was always feeling less nervous during driving. There's also a lot to see around and the ride is more interesting in such situation.
When you drive a car in a simple highway, where most of the surroundings consist of a flat land and a few trees here and there with no buildings or wildlife, it's really boring, in my opinion.
However, the transportation in my country relies heavily on buses - even more than trains and private cars/vehicles. Buses are very popular and there are a tons of bus stops.
