Families switch cars for cargo bikes for daily commute as cost of living continues to bite
www.abc.net.au
Since getting a bike over a year ago, Alice Humble and her family have saved $800 in petrol. They're one of many households choosing cycling as car running costs increase.

So, what’s the take away here ? make it so expensive to live people choose cycling and we get better cities ?

    I sold my car last year and barely gave it a secomd thought (I still have access to a car on weekends). Money, environment and space-saving were all factors.

    I don’t think government should be in the business of subsidising driving (which is currently the case in multiple ways). Instead that money should be used to make public and active transport safe, convenient and reliable.
