The following pie charts show how
people
 reached their office and returned home in both 1950 and 2009 in Europe.
Overall
, it is interesting to note that the first pie
chart
 in 1959 describes the average distance at 3.5 km with only 17 minutes,
while
 the
chart
 in the year 2009 shows the average distance at 19km, which is nearly two times more than the average duration in 1959 at 42 minutes, which is almost the double.  Having a closer look at the first
chart
, it is remarkable that in 1959, most
people
 were using their feet, which is dominated by more than half at 55%, followed by public transportation
such
 as the train and the bus,
while
 they were both in the same rate at 15%.
In contrast
,
people
 who used their cars were the double of the other way.  Turning to the other pie
chart
, in 2009, cars became more common, which ranked first at 35%,
while
people
 who used their feet had the second highest rate at 25%;
however
, the rest of the methods were under 20%, which are bus, train, and other methods, respectively.
