I'd like to see a map where the Netherlands are not included. We in Europe are not (always) car-centric but the public transport is awful in some places.
I mean the Netherlands arent thaat big to make a super big impact on that graph, so the comparison still stands.
But the graphic is not telling us which other "non-US" Cities are included to know how diverse the data used is.
I get the impression that Netherlands public transport is above average but not exceptional in Europe (although it depends on which countries you are comparing to). But their bike infrastructure is world leading.
