It would be a similar process to organizing a club, though the exact steps would differ between schools. Ideally you'd meet up at a common central location for everyone and then continue onward to school, picking up other students along the way at other checkpoints.

No buses in this post? I'd place them under chaotic neutral

IDK what the culture is like at your school, but if you're feeling motivated consider offering to organize a group ride to school to encourage others to join in. It could just start out as a one-time or once a month thing and increase from there if there's enough interest.

Is there statistical evidence of that? Mainly curious so I can arm myself next time someone argues about it.

The runner is occupying the whole lane though and they have headphones on preventing the cyclist from getting their attention.

CityNerd posted a really good video on this topic a few months ago. https://youtu.be/H6UD9h3hEdk

His videos are primarily US-focused, but I believe this one applies for pretty much any country.

One option to look into, especially for transporting small children, is a "bakfiets". It's a type of cargo bike with a large bucket in the front that can be used to haul kids and groceries. And you can find them now as ebikes to make it easier to haul more stuff. They're super common in the Netherlands for their high carrying capacity. You'll even see people moving furniture around with them!

Google pannier bags. They're basically totes that mount onto a bike rack. Some of them even have straps to convert them into a backpack for easy carrying.

In terms of distance, I think you might be surprised by how far and fast you can go with an ebike. A lot of people only think about their speed when on the highway, but most of your time on the road is likely spent at slower speeds navigating traffic in town. So what bikes may lack in speed, they make up for in maneuverability.

Eh I'm not so sure I agree with that. Competent subway systems in rush hour tend to be completely full whereas cars in rush hour typically only have a single person inside. So I do believe it's an apples-to-apples comparison in the ways that actually matter.

What class are you taking? Cognitive Dissonance 101?

It's supposed to make the site less desirable to advertisers. Reddit has continually restricted more and more of its nsfw content over the years in an attempt to appease advertisers, so this is a... provocative step in the opposite direction.
