    With adequate public transportation, it becomes much more comfortable and convenient.

    My city installed a few additional bike paths, and added some more buses, and the difference is huge.

    I don’t even need a car except when traveling longer distances.

      But there is no adequate transportation. And we just have no space for more tracks and more trams and busses. Quite the contrary, we even canceled many routes. Public transport is a nightmare here and I wouldn’t use it if I’d be paid to do it. Well and bike-paths is the same problem. No space. Biking is bad here, the absolute opposite to our neighbors the dutch. But I wouldn’t wanna use a bike anyway. I wanna get to point B quickly.
