Are carpool lanes less common outside the US?

Where I am even some of the non-freeway roads have them.

Here in Denmark we have zero carpool lanes. I think pretty much nobody carpools here. At the same time we have highly functional public transportation in most cities and in the largest cities we have trains, busses, and light rails to get around. As well as bicycle paths on most roads.

Yeah, I really wish it could be more like that here.

The largest cities near me do have all of those (and ferries) but not enough to take the place of cars for most trips for most people.
