I am Dutch, have 0 cars, 2 bicycles, and I'm perfectly happy with it. I've only recently came across the first situation in which I felt like car access would be usefull.

A couple I'm friends with were pregnant and they don't have a car either, but since they wanted to be able to go to the hospital quickly and indepently, they rented a car for a week or so. This would't work for me because I don't have a drivers license. People often ask me 'but what if you need to do this or that...' and never do I feel like they're pointing towards a problem that I have. Just some minor inconvenience, if one at all. But in this case I thought, yeah if my wife were pregnant it would be damn usefull to be able to transport her by car, by myself. If it ever happens I'm sure we'll find a solution though. But I found it interesting that it was only the first situation in which it actually seemed usefull to me to have car access.

This actually would be an interesting study.

First thought is this is sublime shithousery.

So, who's gonna tell them the human body burns about the same amount of calories every day, regardless of exertion?

Guarantee that person has a BMI over 40.
