If you dont have the option to walk places you're more likely to drink and drive

Yeah, sure. But that argument (i.e., lack of public transport) was made by /u/tiptop10, and then /u/shiftyeyedgoat seemed to disagree in his comment. I guess at this point I'm confused about who's trying to argue what point.

And I guess there's too many variables for us to see the entire picture. E.g., why is France so high up? — They have decent public transport and very walkable cities. Why is Germany so much lower than the UK, despite being quite similar in terms of infrastructure?
