      because I dont want to literally spend 5 hours round trip on a bus, to go to a store thats 20 minutes away by car.

      and until public transport, and urban planning improves, cars are gonna be a reality for a lot of people.

        I’m not sure why you need to store drive longer that it takes me to walk. But guessing how long it takes to travel by car to STORE, I guess bus ride would take same time because there unlikely to be many if any stops between you and store.

        But there is too little political will to improve PT BEFORE we get rid of cars

          Then how do you expect people that need one or the other to get anywhere in the interim? Can’t exactly pressure my local government if I can’t go to work or eat without using my remaining free time walking everywhere.
