[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Europe, Europe, Europe. Yawn. [b]The United States is vastly more wealthy than Europe. Automobiles are a sign of that affluence.[/b] In poorer countries people own and use more bicycles, scooters, mopeds and motorbikes because it’s cheaper transportation. In more affluent countries more households own cars.

Singapore is but one case in point. [/quote]
