My GF's dad said where he he lived in the Midwest there used to be a small store at each major cross roads. About every 5 miles.

Cars came and every other one died and there was a store every ten miles.

Then they paved the road and it was every 30 miles.

And then the interstate when in and only the major towns every 60 miles apart survived.

Drivers in Wyoming drive an average of 21,821 miles a year (https://www.carinsurance.com/Articles/average-miles-driven-p...) The circumference of the earth is 24,900 miles.

Our species will not survive much longer.
