Environmental challenges of the twenty-first-century led some institutions to foster populations to use less polluting modes of transport. Nevertheless, cars remain a representative means of locomotion for getting to work for a lot of people. Despite a slight decrease from 73.7 percent in 2015 to 72.8 percent in 2020, the car is the most means of transport used for getting to work among the French population. On the other hand, "soft" modes of locomotion were still little used by French people for getting to work in 2020.
