America just bitches more about gas, but people actually pay so much less then most of the countries.

I think the current gas price is $6,30 a gallon in the netherlands.

So everybody should just stop bitching about it. Yes, you pay more for it. Yes, it has been the highest ever.

But have you ever thought about just not getting parking tickets and not busting up your car? That could save a lot more than the money that you loose on gas.

And of course cycling is better, but if there arent any cycling paths(as it is in the US), that cycling becomes absolutely dangerous for the 99.9% that are driving. I'd rather have someone driving more careful then taking a bike every day.
