I’ve always argued this wasn’t the case and that motoring is a worse transport mode because of the associated externalities, not because of anything inherent to the users.

But you can’t argue with the scienceTM!

    Smartphones have reduced the need, since visitors to my town have a map in their pocket, but it’s nice to try to help. It feels good.

    My bike is a Dutch carbon fibre recumbent

      Ah so you help because it benefits you. How altruistic of you.

      Also, nobody asked about your bike. What a weird thing to add to your comment.
