    Come to vietnam. Outside of HCMC and Hanoi, where there are so many bikes they recreate the issues with cars, the freedom and flexibility of 90%+ of the population using motorbikes is good for your soul. The emissions of 8 million 10 year old bikes is bad for your lungs tho.

    China is kinda ahead in that they have both bikes, ebikes/scooters, and public transit, but theres way more cars.

      oh, i don’t need to visit vietnam for that, i live near (and used to live in) a college town with about three times as many bicycles as cars. only time we got in the car was to leave town.
