Can we kick the car habit?: we're often told that we need to become less reliant on cars. But our survey suggests that, for many people, there are simply no suitable alternatives
Article Abstract:
A survey of family car journeys looking into alternatives to car use, found that nearly 40% of those surveyed found no viable alternative, particularly those living in rural areas. Increased fuel costs would encourage those surveyed to use public transport, and they would be encouraged to use buses if there were improvements to bus services. New legislation will call on local authorities to set targets to reduce traffic levels, and those who are concerned about road congestion and pollution can change their travel habits, but the survey shows there is a lack of choice for many people.
