You make a good point but only if your country actually has roads.

If you live somewhere with no paved roads and only railroads, then that and walking are your only options.

(Sarcasm but I’m curious if you see the point)

You're trying to be sarcastic but you just described rural Canada

Well yes, except all the railroads where removed. Just lifted trucks and gravel roads as far as the eye can see.

If you live somewhere with no people and only animals, then you can't get anywhere and must traverse the jungle with a machete and a canteen full of either rainwater or your own piss.
