Citron ami goes for arond 8k in Europe, but I'm sure someone could find cheaper used.
And yeah taxes, fuel, and maintenance are more, but most consumers badly underestimate those costs.

Calling light electric seems redundant. Its like saying electric electromangantic radiation.
Drivers don't t have to look left on right in green, so should naturally look in the direction they're going, and thus see pedestrians and cyclists.
They also have time to spot them while waiting.
I like that cargo bike but damn 6k? That's close to cheap car territory.
The price fixing is only for steam keys which is completely reasonable.
Maybe if we didn't build our cities and communities so hostile to humans, this wouldn't be as much as a problem.
Half of that is probably the 2.5kwhr battery, seems like 1kwhr would be a more reasonable range, 180km seems more than needed for most people.
Bedrooms do have to have windows or a door to the outside to be legally a bedroom.
I'm not ignorant of rural life, I've lived in rural areas, suburbs, and visiting cities a lot.
There are a lot of reasons why american cities suck, high crime, decrepit buildings, not unique to cities either.
Enjoy your life, and be safe. Try not to put others in danger.
I don't know why I care so much, but someone in my area died in a car accident a few months ago. I didn't know her, but i was very close at the time it happened.
A drunk driver hit them and everyone blames them alone, and yeah its their fault. But the road leading up to it is too easy to go fast leading into a shopping center. I don't want to live a culture that just accepts car deaths. I want the county and government to fix unsafe roads. And I'd like something to be done to stop the arms race between cars on the road, in the end your not that much safer, while people outside the car die in greater numbers.
I'm sorry that the area you live in has decided that transportation can carry a serious risk of death. Roads can be desinged in a safer manner, even when people are drunk.
Transit options are workable even in rural areas when designed correctly.
Well I bike to work, so take that how you will.
Personally I'd rather advacote for safer roads for everyone, and transit options that doesn't turn into an arms race, like buses, trains and biking where possible.
Also get hit by a semi, tell me how you win that arms race.
You can always count on people to be irresponsible, selfish, and reckless. So yeah its bad road design to count on people to be safe, when they just aren't.
