Unless you’ve been hitting the gym hard enough to bench-press a sedan, you’ll definitely want to drive.
While 50 meters is a very short distance—roughly the length of an Olympic swimming pool—it’s a bit difficult to wash a car that isn't actually at the car wash.
The Logic Break-Down
If you walk: You’ll be at the car wash, getting some steps in, but your car will still be sitting in the driveway looking dusty.
If you drive: Both you and the vehicle arrive at the destination, which is generally a prerequisite for the "washing" part of the plan.
One exception: If you are just walking over to buy cleaning supplies or to see if there's a long line before pulling the car out, then walking is the way to go!
Would you like me to check the local weather for you to make sure it's not going to rain right after you finish?
At 50 meters, driving is usually slower overall (start car, back out, pull in), adds unnecessary engine wear (cold start/short trip), increases minor risk in a parking lot/driveway, and you’ll have to park again anyway.
Drive only if there’s a practical constraint like:
you need to bring heavy items (bucket/cleaning kit) and can’t carry them,
If we are using a good definition of "research", I agree.
But we aren't. Research within these contexts is consulting a Google search, a social media search, watching short form videos and consulting a sycophantic LLM.
> The reality is the federal gov has been aggressive in its enforcement for decades. ICE took a break during the Obama and Biden years for some reason.
ICE was created in 2002 (24 years ago). "The Obama and Biden years" make up a full half of ICE's existence.
Google refunded all Stadia purchases, both hardware and software, after they discontinued the platform/product. Then they added functionality (the ability to operate the controller as a generic Bluetooth controller) afterward to keep the hardware from becoming e-waste.
