So two in the car is cheaper, and with the sunk costs of car ownership most people will find it cheaper to drive alone. Very often I don't want to return. I can fly to Manchester, visit family, take the train to Derby, visit friends, continue to London and fly home. I can't book advance tickets as the plane might be late, and I can't use a return journey ticket. It's all ridiculous, and I don't understand how anyone can defend it. Here in Denmark I can travel tomorrow (leaving at 02.35 if I want to, good luck trying that in England...) to Århus for about £50, any time of day. That's 300km, London to Derby is only 200km. Booked in advance I can roughly halve the fare, but I don't feel punished if I'm unable to commit to that.
