    If someone can’t walk a few blocks, that’s on them. Airplanes don’t get you exactly to the destination either. There’s a tradeoff.

        Public transportation and walkable cities are much better for the elderly and disabled who often can’t drive due to their age and disability?

        Taking a wheel chair or mobility scooter or be guided by your service dog are all subsets of “walk there”.

      @meco03211 @Jayk0b cars can’t either - it’s a false premise. Not everything is drive-thru. How far is, say, the bakery section from your car when you go to the supermarket?
