Absolutely.....
I hit the treadmill 4 times a week. I walk 3 miles a day with a speed of 3.2 and an incline of 4. There is no way I would be able to do that on the street. It's to easy to allow your speed to fluctuate. Even if there are times when I get tired and I let the machine "pull me" it's still forcing me to move. If I were on the street and I got tired I would just end up slowing my pace.
anyway just my .02 cents as well.
