Is that amount of time common to walk in places in the world where cars don’t dictate the layout of the community?
Im going to be making this walk tomorrow, no worries, I’m just curious if its normal in other places. Maps says its 1hour15minues for 2.3miles or 3.7Km.
I knowww right? Im not from america but when ever i see that something around the corner is a 160 minutes walk is CRAZY! Even here in german country side you have to rely on cars to even get anywhere outside the villages!! One should have the right, to get to anywhere with public transport and not be reliant on private tools!
Yes! It is a right!
It SHOULD BE a right! IN LAW just like food, water, housing!!
The “cars give you freedom” argument also completely breaks apart if you stop to think about the millions of people who can’t drive, such as children and blind people, who are forced to rely on someone else taking them everywhere because they can’t walk without getting run over and public transport is nonexistent.
It’s only “freedom” if you can afford it.
