And this has what, exactly, to do with my comment?

  Wasn't your comment all about how driving is not that needed in Europe? Try getting to a different province/city etc, easily 30-100km away or more on "public transit". Even where the connections are there (and not like a couple of buses each day), it's neither fast nor pleasant enough to make driving "unneeded".

    In many parts of Europe that is incredibly straightforward - much more so than driving or parking.

    I said it's barely an issue for most people. Not barely an issue for everyone. > Try getting to a different province/city etc, easily 30-100km away or more on "public transit". I seriously considered commuting from Augsburg to Munich by train. Some of my co-workers do this. It's actually not that bad, train ride is about half an hour for 50km. Faster than driving, that's for sure.

    I live in Europe, driving is not needed. You hop on a train or on a bus, although if you have work 100 km away you wouls have some arrangements to live there for some part of the week commuting 100 km daily is unpleasant. Unless your destination is in some rural village that is not reachable by train/bus, like closest bus stop is 5 km away you don't need a car, it is more convenient sure but not essential. I have colleagues at work that are from small towns 100+km they rent a flat in the city here and go home on weekends, by train or car.
