I think I start to understand. But how is it possible to move this many people with cars? I mean, for example, a family of four would then need, four different trips and essentially two different cars because if the adults do not work at the same place, how are they going to get to work on time? Or am I imagining it wrong?
Well, in my family of now just 4 we do have 2 cars because my husband and I each had one when we married. Nowadays this is the commute.
Mornings:
I take the bike
College kid takes my car, drops off high school kid then drives to her school
Husband takes his car to work
There is actually a direct city bus from our neighborhood to both the University and the high school, but because both are farther than my work and they run so infrequent it makes them need to leave so early, so I let the kids use the car.
(When there was one car it was a bigger loop sometimes, or sometimes there is a school bus available, so the kids can take that. Or the school was sometimes only a mile or two (3k or so) then the kids walk.)
Evenings:
I take the bike
Husband drives
College kid drives
High school kids gets a ride from a friend or takes the city bus BUT that bus comes only once an hour so if he misses it, he will walk, about 4 miles.
