text: As april 2013 the number of miles driven per person was nearly 9 percent below the peak and eqyal to where the country was in 1995. Me myself personally think that people should stop driving cars and start walking or using bikes thats one reason why people are becoming obese because they are relying on cars to get them everywhere they need to go. Just imagine that cars were never invented i bet there would be fewer people who would be obese than there is now.
