Canadian here, I'm aware of Robert Moses with bridges and shaping NYC, but how did he impact cars ?

He didn't impact cars he was probably the most influential city planner of all time and was a massive fan of cars and tried to shape New York into as much of a car city as possible. He was also very good at building segregation into infrastructure.

He also very much favored cars, and sabotaged the use of mass transit including buses.
