The people living in cities shouldn't commute in a car, but if you live in the countryside, and spend an hour getting to work in your car, then you will have a problem. In the long run it's going to be the people in the cities who really end up having problems, once the system collapses, but no one seems to have realized that yet. Once the supermarkets food shelves are empty, that's gonna change, and then the people in the countryside will have invaluable knowledge. Nobody living in a city knows how to produce food for themselves, and they have covered the potential "farmland" with concrete, glass and metal. The expensive apartments in the city will surely see a decline in a not too distant future, but no one seems to care.

If the news are correct, 5 million barrels a day is a considerable part of the global production, being almost half the daily production from Saudi Arabia. Look at the oil prices when the market opens monday. That might also give an indication of what will happen when oil production peaks, and supply no longer can keep up with demand.
