Facts on 'Too Many Vehicles'

countries with most cars

China being one of the developing countries, has been one that imported the most cars with a total of approximately 18,350,000 units. Following it is USA.  A whole lot of countries manufacture cars in thinking that they would have huge incomes. This is true, but, unconsciously, they do not realize that they are endangering their people as well. In addition, these countries, have the most number of populations around the world. Humans are born everyday and there are a lot of people who are at that closing to that age (teens) where they would want to own a car. Think about it, a growth in population along with the increasing number of cars. This would certainly cause massive traffic.

The growth of vehicles population in Singapore has been increasing gradually over the past decade from 706,956 to 969,910 with private cars outnumbering every other vehicle. With the number this big, it is no wonder that road traffic happens on every corner of the city. Singapore alone produces vehicles as much as 1000 and the number of new car registering is approximately 47,555 annually, excluding imported vehicles and other public transports. If compared to the growth of Singapore’s population, the ratio reached between the increase of population and the number of vehicles is of 5:1, five times as much. While population increased slightly over 10% in 10 years, the number of vehicles rose over 20% through the period. This means that demands of cars are slowly getting out of hand and could possibly lead to an overflow of vehicles. Imagine a country like Singapore, one of the smallest, being occupied by a huge number of people and vehicles.
