Car Ownership and Road Availability

If you find that driving in the little red dot is getting more and more unbearable, you are not too far from the truth.

Using the data from @ http://www.lta.gov.sg/corp_info/doc/Stats%20In%20Brief%20(2006).pdf

We have this table.

Year	All Vehicles	Motorcycles	Road Length	Lane Kilometers	Vehicle/KM	Vehicle/Lane KM
2004	727395	137029	3188	8354	228.17	87.07
2005	754992	139434	3234	8459	233.45	89.25
Delta	27597	2405	46	105	599.93	268.83

So there are 27597 more vehicles on the road. (2 wheeled motorcycles included.) As compared only 105km of roads has been added (not necessary distance from point A to point B. )

For every kilometer of road, there are approx 228 in 2004 and then it increases to 233 in 2005. Well lets discount that most of the time cars are parked in the car park and not all are on the road. If 40% of them are on the road, then it will still be 91 cars on the road in 2004 and 93 cars on the road in 2005.
