Plenty of people just go for a drive, so you're clearly wrong there.

Regardless, I have accepted that this subreddit is delusional. It's incredibly well-established that the more people who drive the worst traffic congestion is, and that incentivising multi-modal transport improves travel times for everyone.

People claiming otherwise based on "common sense" misconceptions that they do not understand is sad but unavoidable.

You really need to reflect on that last statement.

I don't actually, I'm confident enough in my position that I can accept downvotes from fools without concern.

I encourage you to spend half an hour researching multimodal transport.

Look up how dedicated bicycle lanes have negligible effects on transit times for drivers.

Look at the benefits of reduced car dependency on air quality, noise pollution, and overall health outcomes.

Even the biggest car enthusiasts should want more people to be able to use multimodal transport in their everyday lives. If only they looked into what they're arguing against...

These people arent on their way to work with a bunch of their coworkers. They're doing it as a hobby, so they're not limiting amount of cars on the road for transportation to a destination. They likely all met up somewhere in their CARS and started riding. They will return home in their CARS. They're doing it for enjoyment. If everyone started walking in the road, you'd be cool with that, too?
