People choose a method of transportation based on personal convenience, moreso than cost, sustainability, safety, etc. Dutch citiies make parking inconvenient enough that biking wins out for short trips, and they're dense enough that many trips are short.
What's the lesson here? It seems to be saying that no amount of new infrastructure will make people ride bikes.
- brlewis 7y agoI don't understand why you think people value safety less than convenience. I think infrastructure that increases safety will encourage cycling.
