        I did a quick Google 95% of households have a car in America. That’s “almost all” but a lot of those households presumably have one car but multiple drivers, the fractions is not easy to determine. So I can’t decide if your claim is true or not.

        I agree with you that the person you were responding to is not at all in touch with reality though.

      Instead you have an even better luxury, a decent PT system.

      Not only is this luxury cheaper for you, it also does more to be environmentally conscious.

        Sounds like a lot of young men in Singapore (I kinda used to be like that, so I know that feeling). Once they travel a bit and learn more about the world I hope the entitlement will wear off somewhat.

      You do know how small we are right? Even with COE and ERP we still get traffic jams, and they can be quite bad during peak period.
