When I lived in Hong Kong, there were [and still are] 75 to 90% taxes placed on private auto sales! Apparently it is this tariff that helps support public transportation systems like the MTA, and also reduces the number of private cars on the road. :dunno:

I read a better explanation somewhere... lemme see if I can find it.
