Strange isn’t all these born again exercisers were clearly out for a drive or shopping pre lockdown. Just what we’re they doing with their time (now being used for exercise) before?
People see what they want to see. On Twitter i have the pleasure of following people who are extremely pro isolation and also negative. The pro isolationists appear to be seeing increased car use, but the data doesn't back it up.

If you actually look at that data from Google it tells you nothing about movement in the places we are cycling. Ias measuring a very limited set of movements in specific locations it says nothing about people driving in the country lanes.
Of course, but it does demonstrate there's not a lot of difference between this week and 3 weeks ago.
At least it's data and not just someone's unconscious bias.For retail parks, transport hubs but you’d expect that. Doesn’t mean there has not been an increase elsewhere. The google data only tell you so much and certainly not about what been happening round here outside if town.
That's when its noisiest round here with neds/chavs racing on the Parkway just outside the police stationI live in a town ,l am seeing much heavier traffic around town but once out on the open road still very light I am enjoying using bits o road I would normally avoid.
Tempted to go out after dark when it really is noticeable how silent it is. I have taken to looking out the upstairs window for a while at night just to enjoy the peace and quiet.

Don’t think you meant unconscious!"
Plus please explain where the bias is coming from? I have no agenda to prove traffic has increased round here. Are you saying we can’t recognise when it has increased based on at least 80 hours worth of data spread across 40 days?
