I’m not going to look too far into it but half of all trips in Netherlands are made by car and 36% in London (which is probably significantly lower than the rest of the country). I don’t see either of those figures significantly changing. Netherlands is wayyyy denser than USA so you won’t even get close to 50% car trips with the Netherlands system.
That’s not to say you should copy what the Dutch do, you should. But it won’t solve the problem.
