    Public Transport takes twice as long to get anywhere for me (and I live fairly close to both trains and buses), and motorcycles are way more dangerous, and can’t really carry anything except yourself. Cars are a happy medium between the two, which is why people use them.

      Motorcycles are “way more dangerous” if you drive them that way. Falling off of bicycle, motorcycle or a scooter at 30km/h is the same, with added benefit of wearing a helmet. If you ride it at 200km/h, then there’s little to increase survivability. There’s a reason why speed limits are in place. Sure they are still riskier than armored boxes in which you sit, but they don’t have to be. Also if you really care about safety you’d switch to trains and busses which are significantly more safe than cars.
