    Cars are the ultimate symbol of freedom because you just get in and go wherever to do whatever.

    Pick nanna up? sure. Go buy her groceries? Sure. In the pouring rain? Ok. Pick up her dog from the vet? Yep. Drop by the garden store and grab 50kg of fertilizer? You bet.

    In such case most freedom has form of freight train.

      Or passenger train. One that can go long distances, isn’t limited by your physical ability, and can remain climate controlled so my ice cream doesn’t melt on a 20 minute bike ride in the summer. Also time, if I’m at a party and we need more drinks or whatever, being gone for an hour to bike there and back isn’t the best.
