Look at Dutch traffic engineering standards for pedestrian crossings. They’re a car-centric country

Are they now?

    Yes. Amsterdam pays more money to build parking for 300 people in the middle of the city in 5 minutes' walk from a dozen tram stops with trams every 5 minutes and 5 minutes' bike from a train station with trains every minute than it does on its entire bicycle network in a year.

    The gap isn't as big as in the US, but in the Netherlands cars still come first.
