The bar graph outlines the types of transportation the young generation in Grain Britain, USA, Germany and France prefer to use to commute.

The illustration shows that three-quarters of French youths use a car while a few of them prefer two-wheelers, which accounts for nearly 15% of them. The majority of young Americans choose an automobile for commuting whereas half of these young people travel by motorbike.
