Some parts of the world are so heavily built for cars that they are hostile and dangerous to walkers and bikers, and also have little to no public transport. Also, some people are disabled.

Some people can't drive, either due to poverty or disability. But they may be able to walk or cycle.

True, I'm one of them. Wouldn't really say I'm in poverty, but I certainly couldn't afford a car. But that's not relevant, since nobody questioned that. You did, however, question why one would make a 4 min drive, so I gave reasons why someone might.
