jtl found an interesting statistic: Some
European countries have higher car ownership per capita than the US
;
1. Italy 539 per 1000 people
2. Germany 508 per 1000 people
3. Austria 495 per 1000 people
4. Switzerland 486 per 1000 people
5. Australia 485 per 1000 people
6. New Zealand 481 per 1000 people
7. United States 478 per 1000 people
8. France 469 per 1000 people
9. Canada 459 per 1000 people
10. Belgium 448 per 1000 people
The Netherlands is 15 in the cars per capita list. The Netherlands which has the highest gas taxes in the graph that ranomatic found, is also a bigger user of oil (per barrel) per capita than the US. Which surprised me. I think there are a lot of myths around these issues.
