I just discovered an excellent blog called How We Drive. It's a companion blog to the book, Traffic: Why We Drive the Way We Do (and What It Says About Us) , by New York Times best-selling author, Tom VanderBilt. What caught my attention was the photo below, which was shared on Goolge+.

It shows the same number of people in cars, on a bus, or on bicycles and how much space they take up. This is a good graphical representation of how, when cities are designed for cars, they end up being so spread out that you must drive to get around them because distances become too far to walk or cycle, and the population density is so low that transit can't function properly.
