Many long distance public transport users have a car
As part of its Route Utilisation Strategy programme, Network Rail published "Scenarios and long distance forecasts" in June 2009.
An obvious baseline was the existing market.
One interesting statistic in the discussion of this market (page 20, para. 3.2.3) is that approximately two-thirds of people making a long distance journey by public transport actually own a car but decide not to use it.
An interesting insight into the correlation between car ownership, car use and public transport use.
The report is on Network Rail's web-site
