Even after they hit 35? Easy to not have a dl when you are young and no kids.

Starting with elementary school, they can just take the public transport on their own. Used to do this as a kid in Vienna. For younger kids, cars are defenitely an advantage but I'm seeing more and more parents with their kids on a bike. Either on a childrens backseat, in the front part of a carrier bycicle, or by accompanying them on their own bike.

Thats nice. Americans cities are too cold and not bike friendly for that, unfortunately. Bike friendliness might change( or not) in future tho.

It's still easy after 35 because nobody is forcing you to have kids.
