Gasoline is $8.52/gallon in the UK, yet Americans pay $200 more for gas per year
- noodle 18y agothats a fairly silly comparison, imo. as the first few comments point out, the whole of the UK is a large island about the size of oregon state. its more of a testament to the structure of cities and land usage in the US than the gas/car usage. i don't want to use my car, but i use my car because i have to. my city is a sprawling bike-unfriendly city with few centralized urban areas and crappy public transit. and i live in a capital city. compared to an average european city, my city's transportation options are a joke. and most US cities are just like mine. just my $0.02.
