The average person uses up more actual physical energy in walking a mile than in driving 400 mil'ss, according to^the results of tests carried out by the research department of an American motor car manufacturing firm. These tests, incidentally, showed that driving fatigue is very largely the result of continued . muscular and nervous tension, rather than physical exertion on the part of the driver, and that for the most part it is caused by the hecessity of maintaining an unchanging position behind the wheel.
