  • I think delivery trucks are probably still the better option for most packages when they are properly utilized, which they obviously aren’t being if the statistics given are accurate. It’s mass transit for packages. The ineffecciencies probably just come from the overarching problem of there being too many cars on the road. Without that, it becomes a lot more efficient to transport hundreds of packages at once in one truck than have dozens of bikes carry the same load, especially over an entire city. Anything that does need to be delivered quickly should be done by bike, but with proper logistics, delivery trucks actually are more space efficient.
