If public transport can manage it, why can't drivers?

This is powerful.

Perfect metaphor. Exactly what I try to explain to all the “no one uses that bike lane” & the “no one rides the metro” people.
If it comes from & goes no where, who does it serve what does it encourage?
Built a network, not an island!

How many people would drive to work if they first had to drive across a field to get to the nearest road, that road would take a meandering route that got close to, but not all the way to your workplace.
The last mile of the trip you'd have to drive your car down the railway tracks.

😂 it sounds ludicrous, doesn’t it? But that’s exactly what everyone outside a car has to deal with.

And the rest of the time they won't even start the build because they can't imagine it differently.

There's no need to build the bridge. Nobody is swimming across the river, so they must not need to get to the other side.

Unfortunately, car drivers who only see cycling as a leisure activity or as a means of transportation for "irrelevant" people don't understand. Yes, cyclists could dismount at any time. However, the only problem is that the advantages of cycling are then not realized. People who use bikes don't push

[launches extensive training programme teaching drivers to jump the gap but wonders why lots of people just don't fancy it, probably just needs more publicity & evening sessions]
