Using the following scenario we can demonstrate how our DriveMyCarHome service is greener for the environment and reduces CO2 emissions by 60% compared to using traditional taxi of getting the car home.

DriveMyCarHome.co.uk reduces CO2 emission by 60% (30 road miles saved)
This shows that our ‘DriveMyCarHome’ service reduces the total mileage travelled by at least 60% (30 miles) compared to a more traditional method of a taxi (this is without getting technical between CO2 emissions compared between cars and motorbikes). With this in mind, this goes above and beyond the Government’s ‘Act On CO2’ campaign to ‘Drive 5 miles less a week’ to be more ‘Environmentally Friendly’. Therefore, our DriveMyCarHome service can potentially reduce CO2 emissions by 60% compared to a traditional taxi on any journey where this scenario applies (i.e. had a drink and have to leave the car, and pick it up the next day).
