>>1697722Yeah. This the point.
That you don't mention public transit because it can't compete with going door to door.
Ofc bicycle can't compete with car too. It's to short ranged to replace car. (In Netherlands for example average bicycle commute range is 5 km, average commuter range country wide is ... 20+ km, NGMI).
Low speed, low baggage capacy, physical efforts required, no protection from weather, terrible safety (5-10 more dangerous per mile driven).
>cars are expensiveNo shit, this why 3rd world shithiles like Africa or India doesn't drive. But in countries with good income like western Europe cars become 80-90% of the land passenger mileage.
If people can afford car they drive car.
