Yes it takes some time to decode, but it has lots of info.
It would be nice to somehow compare distances, time and population density as well.
Americans drive a lot, but they don’t actually drive very far for work, whereas in Europe it’s rather common to work in a different city than where you live. Asia has the highest population density and this benefits them both in finding local work and building public transport.
Yeah, I’m in the US Northeast. My commute is only 20 minutes and is 95% on the highway/motorway between cities here. This goes for pretty much everyone here with an office job. it just varies of course how far away you have to drive to get on/off.
We mostly do it in the same direction (toward the biggest city in the morning and back to the 'burbs in the evening) and most of us do this at roughly the same time each day.
If only there were a way to link our cars up together? Maybe even make them bigger to accommodate more passengers and share costs? Oh and we could put them on some sort of low-friction guided track!
I found this picture showing the whole world.
That is an abomination of data vis, good god
