I think that's based on the idea that there will be no transport. That's not true, there will be railways and what we will see will be governments falling over themselves to provide them. After all, mass transport existed before roads and will exist after them. It was just slower Outside of the South East the restoration of Beeching routes will be straightforward. In France, they're still there if not maintained. Germany the same.

Restoration will mostly be impossible. Most of the old routes have housing estates on them somewhere along their length.
Also, there are hardly any intermodal terminals or freight yards left. These would have to be rebuilt at huge expense.
And the UK can't even manage a passenger railway properly. There's no chance at all of creating a huge new passenger and freight network that's any use to anyone.
The EU seems slightly better at this than the UK is, but I think it's more likely that stuff will simply become too expensive or generally not available except in certain regions.
Assuming government competence after decades of evidence of its opposite seems unlikely to me.
