I don't drive, but as you may have read above I live in the Netherlands. Our gas prices are about 1 Euro 40 cents per litre= $1.82 per litre, which is close to $7 the gallon. Even with tax compensation, you are still paying a lot.

I doubt higher prices would change driving styles substantially. As much as we hate it, just because is expensive, it does not mean that we don't have to go to work, the dentist, an occasional visit of friends etc.
