Notice it is passenger vehicles, and by that I'm sure they mean only the private ones. It isn't about reduction in emissions, it's about control. I would argue that the US's wide open and available to all income levels roads and highways has done more for real freedom then all of the wars we have fought over the last 100 years. No job here, go over there. Don't like the people here, move over there. Too many people here, go over there. More recently, local store charging too much, buy it online. Even if you do buy locally you benefit because they are forced to compete. This town is forced to compete with the next. This state is forced to compete with the next. Germany is not exactly the same because of it's size, but Europe as a whole makes a good comparison. These types of limitations are great if you are rich, not so much for the poor and in this case even the middle class.
