I am a person that has actively chosen to live without a car, despite work in automotive industry.
Recently I wanted to take my vintage computer in a large crate, to a LAN meeting, but I would not be able to transport it without a car. Which forced me to order a taxi, which is a car for hire...
I maybe could have been fine with a cargo bike, but it would not be satisyingly safe for me or the cargo.
I have also heard the perspective of children safety. When they need to be transported to a communal education center, it is said to be much safer and convenient to put them in a large, crashproof car, than stuffing them in a bicycle trolley while it is raining.
- earthling8118 3y agoHow is having to move something a problem? Nobody is saying they never have a place. But is it reasonable for you to purchase, maintain, and store a large expensive object that pollutes just for some moving? No. It's better to have a system that helps you when needed but doesn't produce as much waste per person. The taxi isn't a problem. What do you mean by crashproof car? Those words don't go together. Even a little.
