I’d get an electric, self-driving pleasure machine, but no way I can afford it.

Just get a bicycle already! Thinking your only other option is an "electric, self-driving pleasure machine" is such a false dichotomy.

With the way most cities are designed, a bicycle is not a safe option for day to day transportation for most people.

Or get yourself a nice plug-in hybrid... E-bike

Yeah, I'm not going to spend 6 hours driving a bicycle to work and back.
