15 minutes for Peter or MJ is easy. If Ben's been busting his hump all his life as a handyman, let the man have his car. Plus, Aunt May wasn't in the greatest of health either.
Maybe people in NYC are just tougher and can walk 15 minutes on the regular 🤷
I live in NJ. A 15 minute walk is worth using a car instead.
Ew. Maybe if you don't have sidewalks or anything interesting along the way. Car culture makes boring unsafe spaces.
No, I mean in urban areas as much as anything else. Areas without sidewalks are what busted my foot two weeks ago. But if it takes 15 minutes to get somewhere on foot, it takes about 3 in a car.
It sucks. I should be able to walk to my local wawa but because of lack of fucking sidewalks I can't safely!
