You can still listen to audiobooks and walk your dog, do gardening or laundry or whatever else you want. All of which are more relaxing to me than driving in traffic - and that’s after the fact that I have a car I actually like driving.

I do that too. I have a lot of free time.

some people can, not everyone lives in a situation where that is possible. it rather comes down to preference.

Now imagine if you could get the same 2 hours of daily audiobooking and it’s a workout or getting chores done. You can do that when you aren’t stuck in a car, activities.

Technically a safety hazard.
