This is turning into an american problem not just for transportation reasons.

For example, take the general culture of outrage. Over time has permeated into the right to have free-roaming kids.

The US has had high profile cases of parents sent to jail , because of twitter gestapo reporting. When the pendulum swung too hard on this direction, there was also pushback: concerned parents lobbied to pass laws enshrining the right of parents to make the determination of when kids can roam freely.

The answer is more complex, but certainly there is an american angle to it.
