So it’s about half as slow as a car. When I was in my last years of college my school was 20 miles in one direction from home and then I worked in another town ~15 miles from there and then another 20 miles back home. If I had been trying to manage that on a bike/public transport it would have been much harder to schedule that and there’d have been no time for anything besides traveling and work/school. It was rough even going by car but that was the only place I could find in the field I wanted to get into that would hire me without having finished my degree.

How long did it take to bike 16 miles?

If it won’t work for everyone then we can’t ban driving for everyone.

Requiring an adult to be with them is functionally a ban for college students or young people trying to work.
