Italy is a car infested country. I would love to know impressions of fellow users from other countries that visit Italy: do you see this?

We rank in the low part for public transport and rails (except high-speed trains). Which is not surprsing

Moreover, automotive industry is sinking in Italy, so there is not even the justification of helping “economy”, for pushing on cars so much.

Finally, there are many more cars than car licenses in Italy. Which, IMHO, is completely absurd

    This is car ownership, not car use. While there is some correlation (if you have a car you’re more likely to use it) I think it reflects purchasing power rather than preferred transportation choice.
