This has good intentions but all this will do is make it so low income people can't travel, and not really affect the rich who are mostly the problem here.
while it's true that the rich are pollution way more than most people - on a population-size it's still just a drop. If you can make everyone reduce their pollution by 10% that's more reduction in total that cutting the pollution of the top 0,1% in half.
Sure that second part is needed as well (if only to make those "I don't have to change anything"-statements like yours invalid) but it's not nearly as effective as putting measures in place that influence everyone
