What do you mean? Car travel and train travel are two completely different ways of traveling. If you go by car you will have to drive it yourself. Additionally you are not confined by the rail system and station but most instead always have a place to leave your car. All of this adds up to making the way you plan and realize your trip completely different and in my mind not really comparable in terms of what kind of trip they are used for. Because of this I find it much more suitable to compare, as the article does, train traveling to aviation.
- majewsky 7y ago(I live in a large city in Germany and use public transport for everything that's beyond walking distance.) Anecdotally, I briefly considered getting a driver's license just because it gives me more options how to spend my vacation. Going to a certain place and driving around to explore the countryside is much more convenient with a car (either self-owned or rental) than by train. I ended up deciding against it because of the high upfront cost of getting a driver's license, and because I would probably not be a good/safe driver if I would not be driving routinely.
