I've a friend who works as a truck driver, and does get compensation for how long he has to drive to get to work. It's also tax credits. As someone who doesn't drive but instead would rely on public transport, I wouldn't get compensated.

Honestly I think that's pretty bunk, why does the public fund people having to commute by car? It's something the company should pay the worker for because it's technically work they're doing for the sake of the company.

    Here you gotta fill out specific criteria to be compensated (in taxes) for driving your own car. Otherwise you'll be compensated based on the cheapest possible mode of transport (train and bus, almost always)
