It's less true, but still very much true. In Germany for example, commuting via car unlocks tax incentives per extra kilometer traveled.

The "Entfernungspauschale" is not tied to the mode of transportation. You get a tax write off for the distance that you commute (regardless if you walk, drive a car, take a bike or ride a train). But I do believe it's the wrong incentive.
