A really city-centric view mind you. Sounds like something Londoners would say
I live in a country with amazing public transport too, but out in the sticks. Public transport is two buses a day for me, fuck that, it's car or nothing
Happy to drive about in a 1.2 litre shitbox though cos I don't have a tiny penis
The NL is decidedly a small country, but has decent public transport even in the middle of nowhere.
Eastern Europe used to be decent at availability, not so much at service, (if for nothing else, not many people had cars) but it is getting worse. There is a ton of rural cyclists though still.
That said, I'm fine with my view mostly being applicable to cities only, since cars are less of a problem in rural places. If you live in or near a city, you should be able to do without a car though. As in the country has the option to make you comfortable not owning a car.
Ha ha flat country opinions Vs Alps opinions 😂 They're never going to match!
I've got nothing against people buying cars to travel the Alps. I've got everything against people buying Dodge Rams just to not be able to park it in this whole country and block the road.
