Where I live, I could theoretically ride my bike to a bus stop to ride into downtown for work. However there is no bike path, or side walk and the speed limit is 55 with no shoulder. The road also gets a few hundred cars an hour. I’ve seen people ride bikes around my area, but never down my road, I’m very confident I’ll die. So I drive 10 minutes to a bus to ride for 45 minutes instead of drive 35 minutes alone in my car.
People that live far away from the train station?? How is that hard to understand?
I know this is fuck cars but that person shouldn’t be called a lunatic if they’re already using the train as part of their commute.
It’s actually a pretty good middle ground as you still avoid one car in a population center and that person still probably has a decent commute

Who are you, who are so wise in the ways of common sense?
