An image that speaks for itself.

That only accounts for cars that fit in a single standard parking spot. It ignores the idiot taking up four spots for his precious sports car (that he brought to Walmart), large trucks/SUVs, or people who double park because lines don’t make sense to them.
Yes but you can fit 14 clowns by car
These days, though, clowns tend to be the sole occupant of an absurdly large pickup truck 🤡
The average car transports 1.2 people
Just think how many shoes would fit… lazy bike riders
Who need shoes
“This parking space fits between -70 and 70 cars”
Bikes are a lot smaller than cars
Proposal, we make ridiculously oversized bikes.
Way ahead of you there.
Can’t decide if this is a huge bike or a tiny car.
Yes.
@HyL Nice bike. Appears to be a “Standard High Wheels” model like my own.
Yes, that was the point of the post.
I’m sorry, I don’t follow…say what now?
And the range is a problem, if your time is limited.
Bikeable cities, e-bikes, public transit, and of these or combinations really should be enough for people to get around a city.
I need to go 40km to work. It’s 30min by car. And 90min by public transportation. I don’t want to waste 3 hours a day when I can waste 1 hour.
With a less car-centric design, you probably wouldn’t have to live so far from work and there’d be more space and money for improved public transit efficiency. Hypothetically speaking… of course this will never actually happen. We’ll just keep making larger and larger roads, spreading out farther and farther, and requiring more people to drive further, increasing the demand for more larger roads. But of course certain kinds of work would never be put in the middle of a city, and would be less efficient to get to as a result.
In my city, though, a nice possible medium is bike + transit. Usually this enables much more efficient use of public transit. Instead of Walk - wait - bus - wait - bus - walk its more like ride - wait - bus - ride. Cutting out that transfer and increasing the speed of getting to and from the transit line makes for much more efficient mobility, even on moderate length trips.

Ohlala peuchère, ta mob est en panne? Allez viens, je t’emmène faire les courses en tandem.
