Our transportation system and an individual's personal transport should not be designed around solely less than one percent of trips they take a year.

I've never claimed that, but the edge cases are important to consider when you're trying to get people to give up their personal cars.

You'll forgive my confusion since you replied to a comment describing a good reason to own a car that most people don't have with a comment about a bad reason to own a car that many people have.

I say it's bad because there are alternatives to every family having a car specifically for the rare weekend trips they take a year
