maybe 3 hours in the car and 1h with public transport.
if you are in the rushhour and a traffic jam (not an unusual problem), then the train will be faster. Plus one can work in the train or relax.
My regional train here 20km going into the city center is impossible to beat by car.
77.77% of the people live in cities. 55% live in cities with >20k people. Generally Germany is a decentralized country with a lot of regions with local center cities. There are 15 cities with >500k people. France has only four.
- pjmlp 2y agoNope, it suffices to live 80 km away from workplace, and not being lucky to live in places with direct connections, where at least three changes are required, with local connection bus, two train changes, plus additional bus/metro/tram on destination.
- lispm 2y agoYou don't need to be lucky to live in places with good connections. There are many such places. That car traffic has generally less problems than the train system is a myth. Check the ADAC traffic event overview on a random workday.
