What we have in the U.S. is highly inefficient, unhealthy, and environmentally destructive. Virtually every store must have a dedicated parking space that is unused most of the time. This causes a huge waste of land resources. What results is a landscape that is hostile to walking and congregating outside, ugly, too spread out, and overly expensive to maintain.
It is good to have well maintained roads. It is not good to have what the U.S. has.
