Rural areas don't have the same density of cars that a lot of urban areas do, so a lot of the problem of high density traffic just don't apply.
It's like saying that rural areas also have people, so it's not like urban areas have any unique people based problems.

My grocery store is on the intersection of two five lane roads that are busy all day every day. The crosswalks are about a 20 minute walk apart.
