There's room for critique.

When I was visiting China, I asked what's up with the prevalence of consumer vehicles getting larger like SUVs (similar to US but I didn't mention that).

The common answer I received was, "I feel safer driving in them."

I think they have a long way to go wean off that sentiment.

oh for sure, the most obvious piece of critique is that cars become exponentially more obviously moronic the more people/density you have, which makes the existence of cars at all in most of asia completely insane.
