It does seem like many germans live wiThout cars. I lIved in Germany before and everyone I knew aroUnd me, in a small town, had a car and really needed one.
In smaller towns and villages, certainly. I live in the city, and most friends who live in the same city don't have a car. I don't even have a driver's license. If I need a car (to buy furniture or to bring something to the recycling depot), I ask a friend to rent a car for two hours at my expense.
