Workers who Drive Alone to Work
This indicator is archived and is no longer being updated. Click to learn more
This indicator shows the percentage of workers aged 16 years and over who get to work by driving alone in a car, truck, or van.
Why is this important?
Driving alone to work consumes more fuel and resources than other modes of transportation, such as carpooling, public transportation, biking and walking. Driving alone also increases traffic congestion, especially in areas of greater population density.
