    a quick 10 to 15 minutes by car. […] By foot it’s probably a few days.

    Just as a raw ballpark estimate. By car could be 50km/h on average, with a walking speed of roughly 5km/h, that’s 10x the time it takes by car, i.e. 2-3 hours.

    A few days usually takes you trough a few adjacent townships. Do you have to take a humongous detour on foot?

      Or they are so weak they can only walk 30 minutes per day and had to rest until the next day

      5km/h is also faster than average walk that is probably not a pace you’d maintain for hours? After considering you also need to stop on intersection you may be getting the average down to less than 4, but then if it’s actually a 10 minute ride you’d probably also spend enough time in stop lights and your average speed would also be way lower than 50km/h
