Suppose a couple with two children is planning a trip to the sea this weekend. They live in Wilrijk and want to go to Ostend. They own a small family car whose diesel tank is almost empty and they do not have a subscription to public transport. The parents consult. Do they take the bus and the train? Or do they choose the car? One takes out his smartphone and the other shows the article on HLN.be stating that fuel prices are peaking. The couple is convinced: they take public transport. A lot cheaper now, right? Unfortunately.

OUR OPINION. “Even with very expensive diesel, the car remains cheaper than a train or bus. Who dares to do something about it?”
