Sure, but most people don't live where you live. A bike doesn't need to solve 100% of problems to still be something to push for when it does solve like 90% of them.

Not even joking there, the VAST majority of trips people drive for here are stupidly short distances. Sure for the 1 guy going 200 miles to work each morning probably needs to just fucking move closer to work use a car, but for everyone else a bike would be fine and leave cleaner air.

Then looking at carparks where I live, there is no excuse here. By local geography, essentially none of these people live beyond a reasonable walking or cycling distance, our air quality is much worse because of it and we are one of the fattest towns in the country despite being as flat as the Netherlands. If they did live far away enough to need to drive, they wouldn't be coming here.
