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

It’d be interesting to see it by weight of those cars. My impression is that Italy has a lot of really small cars, while we here in Sweden have a lot of the US-style Emotional Support Vehicles
Was just watching a live stream of Piazza Venezia (in Rome) and there was bumper to bumper traffic made up of mostly “regular sized cars”.
But it was such a joy to see Vespas, e-scooters, and bikes filter though that mess like it was nothing!
Traffic is only a car problem.
