Maybe not bikes but small electric vehicles such as golf carts would be great. Most wouldn't want to go to work all sweaty.

It amazes me that a lot of these green cities haven't incorporated a small golf cart lanes as most people work within a range of a golf cart distance to travel.

The cost would be a lot cheaper than a car, no need for insurance premiums(if so, very little) , and less maintenance than . Also could likely double the lane traffic within the equivalent car lanes. The consumer would be more than willing to get on board using and buying golf carts just for the financial benefit of it.

Isn't this the selling point of Bird/Lime/Citibike etc... personal mobility? With e-mobility you don't arrive all sweaty.

Golf carts can provide rain and sun protection and can also allow for people to drive their kids to school and other activities as well.

Not saying that ebikes are bad but it would also be more appealing for the masses to embrace golf carts over bikes as a replacement for their vehicles.
