Поймал себя на том, что иногда мне нравится ездить на автомобиле, а иногда нет. Понятно, что чилить на автостраде это прикольно, а пробиваться через городские пробки — нет. Но я осознал, что иногда мне в городе вполне прикольно, а иногда нет. Я даже в пробках иногда стою спокойно.
Начал рефлексировать, и понял: мне приятно ездить, когда я никуда не тороплюсь. Когда можно опоздать на 5-10-15 минут, а то и на полчаса. В гости к друзьям обычно можно опоздать. В магазин можно опоздать, если ты не под закрытие едешь. А вот если едешь на какое-то мероприятие ко времени, то опаздывать нельзя, и обычно даже 10 минут неприятны.
Дорожная ситуация меняется не слишком предсказуемо. Время на поиск места парковки тоже не определено. Да и постоянное искушение где-то что-то нарушить, чтобы не опоздать. Либо наоборот — выезжаешь на машине сильно заранее, и на месте просто ждёшь полчаса.
В общем, машина хорошо решает задачу "Добраться куда-то в место, плохо доступное другими видами транспорта". Но не слишком хорошо решает задачу "Добраться куда-то к заданному моменту с точностью плюс-минус 5 минут". А, например, пешком + метро решает хорошо. Можно, конечно, пофантазировать на тему какого-то предсказания и правильного планирования, но на деле пара забитых перекрёстков вполне могут стоить вам 10 минут, что в контексте городской жизни довольно много.
P.S. Скоро у меня отпуск, и будут очень интересные посты про дроны и мототехнику. Хотя погода в Питере как обычно норовит подвести в самое неподходящее время. С таким климатом хоть на автомобиле езди!
