I occasionally drive the two blocks to the grocery store and back. Only because I plan to buy more than I can carry.

This morning I went to pick up a dollhouse. I parked on the street and when I saw the guy getting it out of his garage, I thought, "What the heck, anyway", got in my car and drove 5 feet up his driveway so he wouldn't have to carry it out to the street.

I guess I could have carried it.

That's displacement, too, and I'm surprised you're still alive.

From my neighbour's driveway to my drive way.

Or down to the store which is 3 minute walk.

I drive to the gym all the time to exercise and drive home. In the summers I walk but the other seasons it's too cold for the .2 mile commute.

On my driveway (500 ft. long) to get mail out of the mail box when it's rainy.

About 20 feet, because for some reason I decided to stop the engine and pop the hood. A cat stared at me and then ran out.

Actually driven? Three parking spaces down the block, to get the spot in front of my house. Everyone here does this. Considers it "their" spot.

I don't consider moving a car a few inches driving it.
