Abstract

[In 2012, urban households spent an average of RMB232,300 on purchasing a car, an increase from RMB154,500, the 2011 level. When the average monthly household income exceeds RMB4000, car-ownership becomes something affordable to many ordinary families. From that point on, increases in income and car-ownership show positive correlation. When the average monthly household income reaches RMB30,000 and above, 80% of households own cars. For respondents to surveys, the biggest sources of stress are traffic congestion, high gasoline price and shortage of legal parking space. In 2012, violation of traffic rules and regulations led to an average 1.88-point deduction from respondents’ driving performance record, an increase of 0.60 points from the year before, in which the number was 1.28 points.]
