But planning road journeys is also a meaningful cost - especially once you've checked the traffic/roadwork reports and in extreme cases webcams. I had to do serious thought to plan a decent time of day to drive down to Kent last weekend, then more serious planning to decide which of the various diversions I should use to take us round the flooded A20 (watermain not rain) and then we ended up stuck in roadworks on the M20 for an hour anyway, because I didn't realise that the normally manageable 1 lane closure becomes a 2 lane closure in the evenings.
I would normally spend at least as much time planning a long drive as I would buying a train ticket.
