Being a person living in Denmark I’m sorry to tell you that your point is not what I see in the streets. Even though we have high taxes on the cars it’s not old cars that drive in the street. Denmark is a very wealthy country and in these years those how choose to have a car most often also has the money to buy a newer car. Furthermore the Danish government recently changed the law regarding taxing of new cars. Today the Danish government favours the cars that are more fuel economic by lowering the tax and “punishing” those who doesn’t. All in all I think we are doing great but I can’t wait until the day where I can change my gas eating engine out with a more environment friendly one. I know there are several alternatives but none that at the moment could satisfy my needs.
