text: First, The percentage of people driving on the road went down because of the expense of the newer vehicles. The ones that were unemployed had no way of getting a new car because they did not work. Some people just did not have a good paying job to where they could be able to afford a new car. Every year more and more people loose their job so when they need a new car they will not be able to get one because they will have no money. Because of the expense of cars now the rate of ownership per household went down severely. The more the price the cars go up the lower the rate for people buying cars. Car dealerships are never going to sell any cars if they keep raising the prices.
