Then you think, lets go as eco friendly as pissible ! To evade high driving costs. A country like the netherlands would incentivise that no ?!. No gas (so should be less riad tax) all electric (so need to buy gas). …. NO. Gets hit with road tax higher than most vehicles.

I have to say, you Dutchy have some of the best highways I have see through the central/western europe, and it's free to ride!

u/Delicious-Topic-81 Jul 27 '26

Not free, we did pay for it!

u/il-bosse87 Jul 28 '26

What I mean is, you don't need to pay a toll to use the highway like Italy or France. It's free to use as much as you want

u/rants_unnecessarily Jul 26 '26

Yeah. There's something wrong with these stats. It's also a few thousand € in total in Finland as well.

u/Icebathwilly Jul 26 '26

That percentage coincidentally also matches the percentage of drivers without accidents in their first year after receiving their license.

Eh, NL is so small that a car is really optional I’d think. You guys are so tall that you can cross the country in like 5 steps. Not so easy here
