I think this is a key difference between Denmark and USA. Here in USA drivers don't think they're being subsidized. A common argument against transit is that each ticket is subsidized.
There's a highway that just opened in Virginia where they increase the toll to the point where traffic flows at 45MPH. The highest toll on day 2 was $40(!!). This gives you an idea of the value of what is typically given away for free.
