They could always send the cars back or leave them behind, I guess, but I was just thinking as a method to make moving to Europe easier for the average american, to load all of their things onto the boat.
Public transit exists in nearly every Eurpean country. It is certainly not great everywhere but it will run miles around anything Americans call public “transit”.
Plus if you intend to migrate you will probably need to transfer your driver’s license which may require a theoretical and/or practical exam.
If you’re moving across the world, you should try to sell most bigger stuff and only transport your valuable and more mobile belongings. There is no reason to transport your oven, your sofa or your IKEA wardrobe over several thousand kilometers. Just sell them and buy something local at your destination. That also applies to your car.

You don’t need a car in most of Europe.

Yes but many people in America
Own a car
So the cars are going to end up somewhere…
Sell it to pay for the transportation fees, then buy a better, less wasteful one wherever you choose to move.
Just how dense is the average American?
You know what, don’t answer that. We wouldn’t be where we are if the answer wasn’t a thoroughly depressing one.
Reminds me of that George Carlin quote: “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”
Yeah I said that already, “leave it behind or send it back”
