Takes a lot less time on the train at 125mph. Less time than it takes to
drive to Manchester. Plus you can read, snooze, watch a movie, eat or
whatever on the way rather than just sitting there holding a steering
wheel.


I thought you could read, snooze, watch a movie and eat in a car as
well?
I saw a cabbie with an ipod propped up on his dashboard watching
cricket the other day and eating and reading are very commonplace as
is falling asleep at the wheel.


My car has a TV in the dash. With tuner. Not sure how it will cope with
the analogue switchoff, and I'm unlikely to find out as I have not even
bothered tuning it in.
