A car can get you go far. But if a store you go to is a distance by bike and by car why do you prefer one over the other? Say it is 2 miles away. The bike you can have more control over and doesn't require fuel of any kind. The car is bulkier, doesn't fit through narrow passages, costs more to maintain, you are more likely to hurt something more severely in a crash. Do you take the slower safety of the bike one day or the faster car? Keep in mind there are no adverse conditions. No hills or any real obstructions in the town you might be in or visit. What caused you to make a choice?
Edit-you have ample time to use either method. Walking is also an option though the slowest besides crawling? lol.
Edit-2 a reason to go to the store is to see your friend the clerk there, they might get off soon and/or your favorite snack awaits. Do you take the chance it will be bought up? Your friend will leave? The car is the quickest if you fear that? What would you do about a phone call? Take a minute to call to see if something is there or have faith there will be something to buy. And someone to talk to? I suppose a preference is based off being aware of judgment calls. Now I'm the one making these posts too long. I didn't want that. It wasn't my preference yet I had to do it anyway to clarify the situations.
