minus-squareRGB3x3@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up13arrow-down1·2 years agoI wish it was possible not to own a car in the US. But our infrastructure is built so poorly that it is actually impossible.
minus-squareel_cordoba@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 years agoI feel the same. Even in a state as populated as NJ the public transit system is mediocre unless you are going into NYC.
minus-squarewoodenskewer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoI only live about 6 miles from my job. If I rode my bike, I’d probably get killed on the road I’d have to take to get to work.
minus-squareXanderill@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6arrow-down2·2 years agoYes awful public transportation…but “impossible”? Nahh. Still, could save alot of wear and tear getting and ebike for a portion of travel distance.
