And just as cars are growing more fuel-efficient, Americans are driving less. In 2010 they drove just under three trillion miles—less than they did in 2006. While better fuel-efficiency is good news for Americans’ wallets and less driving good for the country’s air, for its highways and mass-transit systems, it is something of a disaster.

随着汽车越来越省油，美国人也越来越少驾车出行。在2010年，他们行驶了不到三万亿英里，少于2006年的路程。虽然，更高的燃油效率能节省美国人的经济支出，少驾车也有利于改善美国的空气质量，但这对美国的高速公路和公共交通系统却可以说是一种灾难。
