More data shows that Millennials don't like driving - Autoblog (blog)
Can the flip-flopping data on millennials and their driving habits be chalked up to lies, damned lies or statistics. Too bad Mark Twain isn't around to figure that out, because analysts can't seem to get a decent handle on whether millennials are spending more or less time in their cars than their predecessors among Generation X and Baby Boomers. The report takes a look at whether those driving habits are generation-specific and a result of a change in attitude (e. g. , more concern for the environment, greater use of public transportation or bikes, etc. ), or if they've been caused by different circumstances (e. g. , many millennials hit driving age around the time of the most recent recession, which would naturally reduce the amount of driving they would be doing). Either way, it may not only be a millennial thing, as driving levels started dropping off in the late 1990s with Generation X members. Of course, this report contradicts many of the findings in an MTV study posted earlier this year. That report noted that millennials are driving more than Baby Boomers and Gen-X-ers. I am pretty sure that Millennials are as crazy about cars as we were. Source: www.autoblog.com
