That’s definitely a concern. Considering that 60% of all car trips in the US are less than six miles, the goal would be to provide alternatives so she doesn’t have to drive. Unrelatedly this is actually the irony of the 15 minute cities fracas in my mind: america is already full of fifteen minute towns. 15 minutes from leaving the door to your destination in a car. That kind of thing can feel freeing, but it is really a prison that ties you to making money if you want mobility. In contrast I see older folks and disabled folks moving around all the time in my walkable city with ok transit. Their mobility still requires money, but much less money.
