More of us drive to work than the other main forms of transport combined, according to the latest Census.
The ABS has released commuting data, showing that in every capital city, more than half of the working population chooses to drive instead of use public transport, walk or cycle.
Sydney has the highest public transport use (almost 24 per cent), while the smaller cities of the ACT, Hobart and Darwin have the highest percentage of workers choosing to cycle or walk.
