Teenagers also find it easier to take the car instead of the bike for example. Because they don't take the bike quickly, they burn less fat than someone who is active. Also the car is a lot safer. ]]> 2021-01-04 09:29:46 UTC https://padlet.com/lverwer/cxzvt4kggtipk0qn/wish/1051360066 Terence en Tim https://padlet.com/lverwer/cxzvt4kggtipk0qn/wish/1051360411 Most people in America travel by car, because the shopping centres and schools are far from home and also because there is no pavement.

 can be found where more
 than 50% of the American

 poverty than urban and 
rural areas and are the only
