[quote=Anonymous][quote]Nope. Taking my car. Stems from getting an emergency call from school, had to rush my child to an ortho for a fractured and dislocated bone. Will not be biking or taking public transportation. And by the time all the kids are out of the house, I will be too old to bike (in the heat, in the cold, in the rain/sleet/snow), and will continue to not be interested[/quote] These types of objections demonstrate the cultural imperative of driving in this country. Most Europeans would be confused by this, mostly because public transportation there is normalized and ubiquitous. And even elderly people regularly ride bikes; it's not even noteworthy. [/quote]
