Driving makes people fat.

Or, rather, not walking (as enabled by driving cars) makes people fat.  As this miraculous new study discovers, the more people drive, the less they exercise.  The real shocking part of this article is the cited mileage that Americans average per year.  87 miles.  A year.  That's 0.238 miles a day.  The average person walks less than a lap on your high school track every day.  Makes you want to go run a mile doesn't it?
