Yes, it is different. Mass transit actually works and is quite clean and reliable (except for the occansional strike). High speed trains (220 mph), great subways and bus service to the smallest villages. The taxes are what makes the gas so expensive, but in turn you get great roads, superb mass transit and drivers that are really tested before they are allowed to drive.
In many places a car is not require to live and function comfortably.
