Study finds that once people use ~~cargo~~ bikes, they like their cars much less.

In my experience, the joy of just riding a bike makes people like their cars much less. You simply can't enjoy the outdoors, your city, or your commute while stuck in a car.

I find that it makes you hate everyone while in a car.

And sometimes, if you've experienced an accident, it makes you terrified to drive again.

I've been terrified since I got into a wreck on a bridge, sadly need a car to get to and from work.
