> Dutch railways are in the top three of the world
You're missing the point: even a "top three" railway kinda sucks compare to point-to-point car usage.
Hello from Amsterdam! I've lived in five countries, including the Netherlands for the last five+ years.
Your statement is so false to the fact that I have no trouble calling it a deliberate lie.
First link I found:
https://analyticsindiamag.com/why-92-6-dutch-trains-arrive-t...
"When it comes to punctuality, Dutch railways are in the top three of the world, right behind only Japan and Switzerland. The Dutch railways, also known as NS, have seen an average of one million train commuters every day with 92.6 % of trains arriving on time, an incredible stat for the Dutch railways. If you are from the Netherlands, you probably can’t make the excuse of the train being late anymore. With this level of punctuality, Dutch railways are continually looking for innovative technological ideas to keep its spot in the top three."
All of this is well-known. I think the reddit term for "telling lies to push car ownership" is "carbrain".
You should be ashamed of yourself. Really. Do you have nothing better to do than go out and tell the most transparent lies on the Internet?
