Number of passengers

Question for the user

What is the average number of passengers in the car?

Input help

🤔 It’s highly likely that your journeys will vary, and that you’ll sometimes travel alone and sometimes with others.

Bear in mind that, on average in France, the average number of people per car is 1.4 on short journeys and 2.25 on long journeys.

Notes

The maximum number of passengers is assumed to be 9 (B licence limit).

However, this question is often incorrectly answered because users do not consider the average number of passengers: they will answer 3 if they are taking their children to school without taking into account that they are alone in their car most of the time.
