Talk:Commuting

message: I wonder if this article has an unintended Western bias. I think I remember hearing that worldwide walking is still the most common method of commuting, with many people traveling over five miles each way. -- Chris Q 11:48, 30 Nov 2004 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree with Chris Q about the bias in the article. Not just a western bias but a distinctly Anglospheric western bias. In some Western countries like Netherland, Sweden anbd Switzerland, a minority of commuting trips are by car, so active commuting or public transit represent the main methods of commuting and this should be highlighted. I am currently researching this and will try to find the time to write a few paras for this soon. --AWalsh28 (talk) 06:50, 5 February 2018 (UTC)

message: "Commuters are often referred to as 'Muters in colleges by students who dislike the idea of commuting."
Wait, what? I've never in my life heard that term.Kendall 18:01, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Neither have I, and I've been both a student and a commuter. I've removed it. – Tivedshambo (talk) 08:39, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

message: I'd like to add a health section to the article in light of the studies in recent years linking long (defined as over 45 min in some studies) commutes with health issues such as obesity and high blood pressure. There are many studies about the health problems associated with sitting for extended periods, but commuting seems to be worse than general sitting.

message: Shouldn't there be a source cited for the statement, "The suburbs in the United States and elsewhere tend to have less air pollution than their neighboring inner cities, even though more workers in the inner cities use public transport."?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Secondwire (talk • contribs) 17:53, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

message: I would like to see here a section on _tele-commuting_ through the increasing use of tele-presence technology (internet in general, chat, video conferencing, remote access) and its influence on physical communiting. This will include some reference to recent and influential literature (e.g. the book "Remote" by Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson). Oschettler (talk) 08:53, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
