Well, I need to stop by fedex, go the the grocery store, and pick up dry cleaning all before I get home. Then I need to make dinner. So, if the bus takes 1.5 hours and driving takes 15 minutes… the car wins.

We should really say fuck urban sprawl. I’d love to walk to work 🤷

Well those things are like in the same mall where the parking absolutely sucks, so bus was way easier.

For me it's an 11 minute drive, 16 minute bike ride, or 58 minutes walk according to Google. Not sure about the bus since it doesn't calculate time for multiple stops.

Perhaps, but bike and walking time don't change based on traffic

how is a grocery store in a mall?

[-] M500@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 month ago

That’s how it is in the Philippines.

Parking usually sucks, because it’s completely full.

I’ve even seen cars line up for a space to park at the mall.

The parking garages are usually big, but Manila is overcrowded by a significant amount.

Pretty normal in most European countries
