What is the difference between life with a car and life without a car?

Perhaps the public transportation facilities in big cities are relatively developed, and there are too many people and too many cars, so it is not very convenient to have a car. But in this third-tier city where I live, there is a difference between having a car and not having a car. relatively large.

First of all: it is very convenient to have a car to commute to get off work.

Take me as an example. If I drive from home, it takes about 20 minutes to get to my work. If I take the bus, it first takes about 20 minutes to walk from my neighborhood to the bus stop. It takes 20 minutes to take the bus, and then after getting off the bus, it takes another 10 minutes to walk to the work, so it takes 50 minutes. It takes 20 minutes to drive and 50 minutes to take the bus, a difference of 30 minutes. And the bus is very crowded, but driving is still comfortable.

Secondly: it is very convenient to go shopping.

If you are driving, drive directly to the underground parking lot of the mall. Especially if you are traveling with a baby, it is convenient to bring everything. Including shopping items, you can also put them in the car first and then continue shopping. If you don’t have a car, you have to carry large and small bags, which is very inconvenient, including eating. You have to carry so many purchased things, or you have to go shopping on another street. There is no way to store so many things. very tired. I usually go shopping by car.

Again: You need to drive to see a doctor

For example, if you have an urgent illness, especially if your baby has a fever, if you have a car, you can drive directly to the hospital for a check-up. In this case, take the bus. It is definitely inappropriate. Firstly, it brings in germs, and secondly, it is not good for the baby's condition. If you take a taxi, it won't be able to drive around your neighborhood. You can only call Didi to wait for the taxi.

I have said so many conveniences of having a car compared to not having a car, but convenience requires money, haha. The monthly fuel, maintenance, insurance, etc. cost of a family car per year The cost of the car is over 10,000 yuan. My heart bleeds. Whether you want to buy a car or not depends on your personal needs.
