The total road mileage of the
United States outside incorporated
towns and cities is about 2,456,000
miles. With a total registration of
6146,617 motor vehicles there was,
therefore, an average Of rs motor
cars for every mile Of public road in
the United States. The distribution
of cars among the several states, how
ever, is far from uniform. Thus, Ne
vada has but two cars to every three
miles of road, while Rhode Island has
16 cars to each mile Of rural road.
Furthermore, while there was an aver
age Of one motorcar registration for
every 16 persons in the United States,
in the states Of California and Ne
braska there was one car for every
seven persons, and one car for every
eight persons in Iowa and South Da-
kota, but only one car for every 81
persons in Alabama, every 46 in Louis
