For the UK at least the public transport point isn't relevant. The price of most public transport is so high that despite the cost of petrol (gas) it's still a lot cheaper to drive for most journeys especially if more than one person is making the trip. Combine that with most shopping (esp food) now being out of town and cars are used almost as heavily as the US.

The other point with public transport in the UK it that although there's a lot of it it's crap. Frequent delays and cancellations, especially on the trains, means people hate using it.


But then you should know that
