Notr exactly. As mentioned above, it's a common enough fuel in parts of Europe. Either the cars or the fuel stations had to come first, whether through government mandate or private sector recognizing a market (don't know which it was in Europe). It could at least be done either in sections - major routes for shipping or commuting - or small markets like in NYC. Switching 50% of NYC cars to CNG or LNG would be significant and doable.
