Benzine is just the term we use for midweight car fuel, which the American dialect of English knows as gas. Most common component actually tends to be C8H18, with actual C6H6 distilled out of it because, well, benzene is carcinogenic.
And to be honest? We gripe a lot about our mass transit system. Probably unjustly, given that in general every town is tied into it, including the tiny ones. And there's traffic every hour on nearly every line starting from 6 or 7 AM until 8 or 9 PM. Of course, the Netherlands are considerably more densely inhabited than vast chunks of the US, but that's part of the reason we've god such an excellent public transport system. A place like Los Angeles would, in the Netherlands, have a highly developed and effective mass transit system for the twin purposes of increasing mobility of the poor and lowering car presence on the roads.
Given the place is fairly hilly I'm not sure bikes would be as popular though.
