Have you heard of this thing called a bicycle? It’s crazy new. You can get a basket or electric engine, totally crazy, ikr? It’s okay, I don’t blame you for not Knowing, excuse the sarcasm. Being raised in the us or Canada, you don’t see any realistic alternative to owning cars. All of the above can be compensated by owning a bike.

Please elaborate

If your going to a friend’s, you can either carpool, bike, get an Uber, walk or host. All of these are way cheaper than owning a car.

Ooh. Didn’t see context. My bad.

Well this isn’t necessarily true. Electric or regular bikes are always an option. Yes, car dependency still sucks.

Nope. I am 15, nice observation. I have lived far away from things before, where driving is the only option. We all agreed we needed to move ASAP, so we weren’t driving half an hour to school every day. So glad I’m riding my bike to school now. Public transport is relevant here, but I’m biking.

These benefits are with cars and bikes alike.

A common theme I’m seeing is assuming public transport is the only other transport aside from cars.

That’s fair. Cars are unfortunately the only solution in some cases. Thanks for the insight.

I see where your coming from, but those problems aren’t nearly as prominent as you think they are. Weather can be compensated by casual gear. Cargo bikes can haul practically anything. Getting an electric bike also helps. There are lots of bikes out there, so you can get one optimized for you.

They work the best. Is there another solution?

It’s really sad how some of the government thinks removing public transport accessibility is beneficial.

Invoking guilt, yes I’m saying it descriptively. I put it at the end as a “I’ll let you make the right choice”. Thanks for pointing it out, though.
