As well as the environmental effects of driving, consider also the relative costs, safety and travelling times of various forms of transport.
When considering the costs of driving, remember that it isn’t just the cost of fuel that you need to take into account; you also need to consider insurance, depreciation, maintenance and vehicle tax.
Statistics have proven that travelling by bus or coach is about as safe as travelling by air, rail or on water. All of these transport methods are less risky than driving a car or riding a motorcycle.
