Europeans spend most of their travel time in cars

Highlights

People’s need for easy access to goods and services has increased the

demand for transport. However, despite improvements in the means of public

transport, this need is predominately satisfied by the use of private cars.

Chart 1 shows that in the European countries with available data people

spend on average an hour per day travelling. More than half of this time is

spent on travel by car.

Chart 1: Average travel time/person/day

Moreover, people in most countries make on average 3 trips per day and

travel between 30 and 40 kilometres per day.

Regarding the purpose of travelling, leisure activities are the main reason,

accounting for more than 40% of the time spent on travel in most of the

countries with available information. Work is the second main reason for

travelling. This situation is similar no matter whether analysing the distribution

by travel time or by distance travelled.
