Your employer may offer you special benefits for carpooling and help you find co-workers who live along your route. Carpooling can also save you money in gas and car maintenance. Your insurance may even be cheaper if you don't drive to work. Bicycling is cheap, fun, and good for your health. Many short trips can be made as quickly on a bike as in a car.
Insurance is unnecessary, and parking is free and abundant.
Public transit is a low-stress way to get around. Walking is another healthy alternative to driving. Everyone is a pedestrian or wheelchair user at some point in the day, but we frequently forget to consider walking as a serious transportation option. We should work to ensure that our communities are safe and comfortable places to walk. The best transportation solution of all is to live close to where you work and play so your need to travel is reduced.
