You guys are right. These numbers are actually very conservative. It assumes each form of transportation is at full capacity. When is the last time you saw 5 occupants in an SUV (and on that gets 21 mpg lol), or even a sedan for that matter? I think 56 mpg is high for the majority of the bikes out there too.
