ALBAWABA -If you despise traffic, you should consider yourself lucky if you don't reside in these countries and have to cope with their traffic.
Ever since the very first car in the world was invented back in 1886, the number of cars has only been on the rise. It was estimated that in 2022 there were around 1.446 billion cars in the world, and this number is expected to only rise and reach 1.8 billion by 2030.
Perhaps this fact should not come as a surprise to anyone because, as more people reach the driving age, more people need to drive to work, and more people need a car to get to places far away from home, it is only natural for more cars to be needed.
Here are the countries with the most cars on their streets
1. United States
The United States has the highest number of cars in the world, with over 250 million registered vehicles. This indicates that in the United States, there is one car for every 1.2 persons. The huge number of cars in the United States can be attributed to a variety of reasons, including the country's large size and the giant companies that manufacture cars within the country.
2. China
China lands in second place with the number of cars and is predicted to overtake the United States by 2030. It has about 220 million registered vehicles, and the number is continually growing. The rise in the number of vehicles can be linked to a variety of factors in China, including the country's expanding middle class and the country's growing economy.
3. Japan
With more than 100 million registered vehicles, Japan is the third country in terms of the number of cars. The number of cars in the country has been relatively stable in recent years, but it is still a country that relies heavily on car usage.
The rise in the number of cars in Japan is due to a number of factors including the country's mountainous terrain, and automobile manufacturers located in the country such as the famous Toyota.
And of course, there are other countries with a big number of cars, such as Brazil, Germany, and Russia.
And as it's expected for the number of cars to only stay on the rise, one can only wonder how things are going to look in 10 years and if the top 3 listed above will change or not.
