Why can't we have a nice, modern system of transportation infrastructure?
Part of the reason is because any "modern system of transportation" includes a public transit component. Wypipo in Louisiana think public transit is for Other People, not them. Therefore they don't want to pay for it. In the rest of the country, outside of the South, wypipo take public transit all the time. It's stigmatized here by backwards shortsighted people that take to anything considered 'modern' begrudgingly.
Basically, if you want something modern, you'll have to leave Louisiana.

It works in areas of New Orleans, Houston, Atlanta, and elsewhere, so your "southern" theory is nonsense.
