This reads like a sideways “leave the bike at home or you’ll die” post, but assuming the satirical tone is my own dark-humor brain, it does make sense to have things in order regardless of transportation methods. Fatal car wrecks happen every day.
To clarify, I don’t live in a city, I live about 30 minutes outside of one, where almost everything is a 20+ minute drive. And it wouldn’t be my main mode of transportation (I couldn’t bike to work, I’m uncomfortable walking to my car at night when I get off, there’s no way I’d bike home), just quick runs to the closest grocery store, or maybe some trips to the coffee shops that I’ve noticed I pass while driving to my longer errands.
