The streets of the US seem very wide too compared to European cities, even when cars are involved.

The section for cars to drive down looks to be about 15' vs 24'. Even that is fairly big, in a lot of cases there is only room for one car to drive at a time or only one side is parking. The pavement is a lot narrower too, around 6' vs 15'.
