@EUCommission Fewer people on roads = fewer road deaths.

But try traveling from Germany to Brussels, one of the seats of the European Commission, by train. Half the time you will miss your connection and are not allowed to continue with the Eurostar without buying an extra Eurostar ticket.

This kind of friction pushes people in cars on the roads and could be solved by policy with a European compensation structure for transporting people who missed connections between national train operators.
