I wonder about other factors, like safety requirements, fuel price, fuel taxation, license requirements and population percentage/wealth owning a car.
I also remember when cellphones first became available in other countries.
Because landlines were so screwed up in other countries, and adding cellphone infrastructure was simple and competitive, uptake of cellphones was much more abrupt. The US got terrible cellphones at a slower rate.

Like how much of that slow transition was related to large established companies defending their existing infrastructure and investments? Reminds me of cars too. The big problem NA has right now is giant rent seeking corporations have become too powerful and are uninterested in change.
