According to https://www.quora.com/Why-do-people-prefer-to-use-bikes-over-cars-in-Copenhagen ,

 * Gasoline prices are high in Denmark

Also, someone else remarked "I once raced a Porsche through Copenhagen on
my beach cruiser bike and won easily. That-F¢s why."  Which
concurs with my opinion that driving is too easy.  In Ca, it's a
matter of history, lay-out, and culture, I think.  With the availability
of electric cars, pollution is no longer an issue, unfortunately.
