I just simply want more biking trails in missouri. I grew up and lived and still do live under the poverty line (I can’t afford a car), and driving a peddled vehicle on a state highways which connects us together would be just plain stupid and dangerous. Riding a bike going 12-15 mph doesn’t seem fast to most people nowadays but between that speed and 3 mph Could mean job security. Taking 3-4 hours to ride any where down a state highway within biking lanes could underturn poverty strickin towns and their people giving them a future.
15 miles per hour; you could travel freely for 45 miles in just 3 hours. Taking on unnessecary debt is killing young americans who just simply can’t compete in todays economy. We have to first buy a car (likely not a good or safe one), and on top of it insure it, and pay gas all while working for an $8.50/hour job. Meaning first you as a citizen either need to become completely dependent on family (when most don’t have that dependancy) or become homeless.
Requiring safer cheaper travel to americans when liscencing Class F driver’s licenses is not a non alienable right should be required of all states. It’s a simple and clear opinion i am trying to Voice; " The road ways are in the way of safe and cheaper methods of travel. "
" The road ways are in the way of safe and cheaper methods of travel. "
If we cannot travel safley along our road ways by simpler passages that are Nonalienable (walking & biking), then how is it that the government has not breached our right to travel. You have impeded that right by inacting a dangerous and quite frankly hellish nightmare right by where an american citizen has every right to be & to travel; but by no means does it make right that we have to walk a path of most assuredely near anihalation. It would be a kin to say that we have a right to swim across the Pacific Ocean or to Say we have the right to walk the fence in combat as a citizen. It encourages stupid people to do things that we -have -not -adapted -the -terrain -for. We either adapt to what is ( stay inside our homes with no right to walk roadways), Or die.
The only reason more people don’t die in horrific traffic accidents today is because states generally discourage the behavior;

AI Overview
“Due to the inherent danger of walking on state highways, the number of people who do so is extremely low and not readily tracked by official data, as most states discourage or outright prohibit pedestrian traffic on major roadways unless designated sidewalks or shoulders are present; however, in situations where there are no alternative walking paths, some people may be forced to walk on state highways, especially in rural areas.”
Is travel truly unalienable or have we done poorly to adapt around this civily mutual right we all deserve to have no matter of class brackett, or location (exceeding; when it is martially ruled not to do so. Further that we in lower class brackets already have no right to right : as in no safe way thus in habiting such action.)
It is the state and federal governments job to uphold these civil rights in all capacities; adapting the law because for poor excuses of we can’t or we won’t just means you’ve failed to uphold that portion of what is civilly right and just. Holding people and inhabiting them to leave their house is a disgusting act and is no better than house arrest in facing the circumstances of travel deemed bellow this " BRACKETT" to be to dangerous; it is you who has made tavel impossible and roads impassible.
Providing those means and upholding those qualities of livelyhoods is up to the state and federal government and human inaction due to inability within law and or safety risk I ask someone to move on this; and change our capabilities of economic growth; infrastructural change, and civil quotiont to be met.
We should be protected under the guise of law to travel freely within our own states (within perammaters of not breaking any licencing laws) to travel how we deem necessary.
