It works out cheaper for me to run a car, with tax, high fuel bill, tear and wear on tires and other parts then it would for me to take a train to work. Plus the car is a tad quicker...
Plus the whole transportation thing is a sham in London. I never understood what was wrong for paying 40-50p for a child fare and if the child was 3miles+ from school then he/she would get a free term off travel. Instead we now have higher fares to compensate the free travel, more twits using and ruining the buses. Then they introduced the oyster saying it will stay at £1 and never increase... cough *b0ll0x* cough, it has gone up twice. Now borris has introduced these hire bikes... we see him using them now, but I give it till it snows and he will be in a car.
