Road to Rail Ratios in US Regions

The chart above shows the ratio of the road network to the rail network in every US region. The larger the ratio, the more prevalent roads are over rail in the region. For instance, the West has 31 more miles of road for every mile of rail. All regions of the US have a pretty similar road to rail ratio that lies somewhere around 30:1 (the figures in the chart are rounded to the nearest whole number).
Road to Rail Ratios in EU Regions

The chart above shows the ratio of the road network to the rail network in every EU region. The larger the ratio, the more prevalent roads are over rail in the region. For instance, the Southern EU has 31 more kilometers of road for every kilometer of rail. All regions of the EU save for the Southern EU have a road network that is less than 20 times larger than their rail network.
Road to Rail Ratios in EU States

The chart above shows the ratio of the road network to the rail network in every EU state. The larger the ratio, the more prevalent roads are over rail in the state. For instance, the Netherlands has 48 more kilometers of road for every kilometer of rail. Only two states have a disparity of over 40:1 between the length of their road and rail networks: the Netherlands and Greece.
Road to Rail Ratios in US States

The chart above shows the ratio of the road network to the rail network in every US state. The larger the ratio, the more prevalent roads are over rail in the state. For instance, Rhode Island has 318 more miles of road for every mile of rail. Rhode Island is the only state with such a high ratio as every other state has a ratio of 60:1 or less.
Vehicles per Kilometer of Roads in EU Regions

The chart above shows the number of motor vehicles in EU regions by kilometer of roads. The Southern EU and the Western EU have the most vehicles per kilometer of roadway just as they have the highest vehicle to resident ratio.
Vehicles per Mile of Roads in US Regions

The chart above shows the number of motor vehicles in US regions by mile of roads. Although the Northeast has the lowest rate of vehicles per residents and the Midwest the highest, in this metric the results are reversed.
Vehicles per Kilometer of Roads in the EU

The chart above shows the number of motor vehicles in EU states by kilometer of roads. Luxembourg and Malta are the only two states with over 100 vehicles per kilometer of road.
Vehicles per Mile of Roads in the US

The chart above shows the number of motor vehicles in US states by mile of roads. Hawaii has the most vehicles by far per mile of road than any other state and assuming that each of the vehicles were a mid-sized passenger car (about 15 feet in length) and placed front to end in a line the state has eight-tenths of a mile of vehicles for every mile of road.
Vehicles per Thousand Inhabitants in EU Regions

The chart above shows the rate of motor vehicle ownership in EU regions. The Southern EU has the highest motor vehicle ownership rate but there isn't that big of a difference between the regions of the Union.
Vehicles per Thousand Inhabitants in US Regions

The chart above shows the rate of motor vehicle ownership in US regions. Aside from the Northeast, there isn't much difference in vehicular registration rates between US regions.
