Frequent drivers: who is driving down London’s streets? — Possible wearepossible.org

It’s no secret that London has a car problem.* But research shows that most Londoners make most, if not all, their trips in the city without a car.** So who’s driving the cars that clog up the city’s streets? 
(alt-text: data visualisation showing two stats. That ten per cent of people take half of all car trips in London.)
According to a recent survey, conducted by YouGov and released under an FOI request, in the last year, half of the adults in London haven’t driven at all, and of the half that have gotten behind the wheel of a car, it’s not a frequent occurrence. In fact, it’s just 13% of adults in London drive five or more days a week. This suggests that a relatively small proportion of Londoners are responsible for most of the car trips.
