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

I was just reading an article yesterday in the Australia Financial Review (paywalled) with a few Aussie’s who emigrated to Italy, 2 retirees, one a younger family, and they all commented that the public transport was so much better and so cheap compared to Australia and they didn’t need to own a car.
