ITALY: has the second highest number of cars per capita in europe [= pollution, traffic, car accidents]

 

It s funny how car ownership used to be an indicator of wealth and status.

It has now become an indicator of a a crisis: a cultural crisis, an environmental crisis, an health crisis, a mobility crisis - among other things.

More than 30 millions of Italian travel every day, 40% by car = disaster.

Fun fact: Italy has both the highest ratio of car ownership ratio per capita and one of the lowest rates for cultural consumption per family in Europe.That says it all.
