If electric vehicles are completely banned, what are the most economical means of transportation in rural areas?

Electric vehicles, such a good means of transportation, will not be completely banned, but some cities have strengthened management and banned non-national standard electric vehicles from the road. As for rural areas, it is theoretically not allowed to ride over-standard electric vehicles, but national standard electric vehicles can ride at will. If electric vehicles are completely banned, it will bring great trouble to rural travel. Although farmers are not too poor now, it is not easy to consider new means of transportation. Compared with two-wheeled electric vehicles, rural three-wheeled electric vehicles seem to play a greater role.

Before the 1980 s, the older generation didn't have any cars when they went out, and bicycles were also luxury ornaments, which most families didn't need. People in rural areas basically go out with two legs, and walking on two legs is of course the most economical.

I remember an old man in the village next door. In the early 1980s, he made a straw mat himself. From the village near the county seat, he walks to the town 2 1 km away every day to sell. As soon as the rooster crowed, he began to get up, walked all the way through a telephone pole, carried the drafting mat, walked about 5 kilometers in an hour, and arrived at the market in the town around 8 am. He sold straw mats in the local area all day, and of course he brought his own food.

After a hard day's work, I sold almost everything. At about 6 pm, my uncle packed his bags and walked back to his village from the town. He won't get home until around 9 pm.

In fact, at that time, most rural people could only choose two legs when they went out, and everyone felt nothing. If they have a bike to ride occasionally, they will be very satisfied. Most people go to school 5 kilometers away on foot. I remember when I was about four or five years old, my grandmother and I walked to her mother's house, and the mileage was about 10 km. Of course, I walked back and forth, so I didn't feel anything. Of course, walking is inefficient, even the most economical.

Horse is a distant ancient means of transportation, and it is estimated that it will still be used in modern times in northwest China such as Inner Mongolia. Even in rural areas in the south, horses were very scarce in the last century.

However, cattle in southern rural areas are still relatively common. In the 1970s, there were still many ox carts. The old cow pulls a broken cart and walks very slowly, almost like a human, but it can pull a lot of goods, bring tools to do farm work and take agricultural products out to the market, which was used in the countryside in the past. After all, cows themselves can help farmers do farm work and plow fields. Cows can eat grass by themselves and seldom get sick. They are strong and docile. As long as there is a child in the family to take them outdoors to eat grass every day, the cost is not expensive, and they can sell it to recover a little cost when they are old.

In the north, you can also choose donkeys. Donkeys can ride directly, and of course they can also be used to pull carts, which is more convenient than cows. Donkeys can also be hay, corn stalks and the like, and they can also eat miscellaneous grains. The cost is easy to control and the running speed is much faster than that of cattle.
