That's an exception, most homes have driveways or garages, there being places with less driveways doesn't explain the nationwide trend

Most places that have less than 60% driveways are in London or other major cities with transit networks.

    Sorry it's early on the morning and I haven't woken up fully but the pdf you linked talks about off street parking. Not driveways or garages. What am I missing?

    Are we expecting people to drape electric cables from their front doors across the street to their cars? And that's assuming they are able to park directly outside their house and not down the road even on the same street.
