=== Cars === Australia has the thirteenth-highest level of [[List of countries by vehicles per capita|car ownership]] in the world. It has three to four times more road per capita than Europe and seven to nine times more than Asia. Australia also has the third-highest per capita rate of fuel consumption in the world. [[Melbourne]] is the most car-dependent city in Australia, according to a data survey in the 2010s, having over 110,000 more cars driving to and from the city each day than [[Sydney]]. [[Perth]], [[Adelaide]] and [[Brisbane]] are rated as being close behind. All these capital cities are rated among the highest in this category in the world ([[Automobile dependency|car dependency]]).<ref>[http://www.eoc.csiro.au/lb/lbbook/urban/yb2.htm Urban Australia: Where most of us live].
