Depends.  If I'm just going there and not carrying anything back (like groceries or shopping bags) I'd probably just walk.  However, it's freezing cold outside right now so I go everywhere in my car now just cause I feel it's safe.

I'd probably walk. I've walked for half an hour before to my house and the bus was just pulling into the bus stop as I was opening my house door. Would have been standing at the bus stop for a while.

I think walk is a good idea.  Most of the time I walk especially now a day gas is increasing.

I need to exercise so I try to walk short distances and up and down stairs whenever I get the chance.

I like to walk for shorter distances, but love to drive for longer ones. It all depends on my mood also.

If you had a choice and were going a short distance, would you rather take a walk or take a drive?

walk if it is a nice day but if it's cold, rainy, snowy, ect. forget about it  :dontknow:

I mostly drive because I'm out in the country and not close to anything.  I do my walking on my farm and in the woods.

On nice days walk. Getting exercise, avoiding traffic and saving gas!

I usually prefer to walk, but yes having to carry stuff or anticipating that I might have to is definitely a factor.

Depends on the errand.   If loaded with heavy groceries or packages, then drive.  But when possible, to save gas, walk if the weather is not bitter cold or pouring rain.
