>>1889566vehicles that use fossil fuels, extremely efficient nowadays
-burn high energy liquid source for energy
-use surrounding oxygen to do controlled burn
-more usage of fuel, less fuel itself having to be carried, higher efficiency when at lower %tank fullness
-rapid refill of tank for smaller vehicles
vs
electric
-batteries don't reduce in weight when empty
-permanent reduced range because of this, only increasing in range by removing other features and improving battery storage %
-CHEAP to recharge vs fuel in most places
-takes hours to half a day to safely and nondestructively recharge(gas stations replaced with either battery swap stations(never works, capitalism) or recharge and sleep stations(all little motels/hotels having recharge stations)
or
in-road charging/power like in rail and subway stations
Being pushed both because fossil fuels are going to cease to be affordable to the masses within 40yrs AND to repair/replace/upgrade our degrading electrical systems(reasons for all those mysterious terrorists destroying powerstations)
vs
human-powered transportation
-cheapest to insure
-cheapest to buy in/get
-fat bicyclists don't truly exist after biking for so long
-WATER is the main limitation for distance traveled(physically fit Olympians can't carry all the water they need for a 1500mile trip on their bicycles without passing out and not being able to even move at first
-water availability is the main limitation for biking
-food isn't hard(look how easy it is for the poor to reach ACTUAL FREAKSHOW OBISITY sizes on cheap food(high fat/sugar/calories)
-toilets too(unlike campers, carrying all your urine AND shit wouldn't be viable for any long distance bikers)
-can't use major roads(illegal in USA, somewhat legal in Canada because of history of fundraising/olympics/togetherness) only rural highways with no law stating its illegal, allowed on interstates ONLY to go from one highway/road/dirtroad to the next on the otherside
