Living in Belfast that doesn't surprise me.
School runs are impossible to do here with public transport hence ppl drive to do school run, as by themselves they can use public transport.
The public transport routes tend to not go past school or not past work, they all go via the bunged up city centre leading to a crap itinerary.
Every time schools are out congestion drops massively as ppl can leave car / don't all have to use a couple of roads at the same time.
They're working on lots of cycle lanes, but if you live in the sticks you may as well drive as cycling is too dangerous on many routes and public transport costs more than a car.
But there are changes lately with bus lanes, cycle lanes, drive and bus into town.
