this is how my google maps statistics look after living car-free for one year

public transit and walking increased because I was on holiday. also the displayed hours do not represent the real time I was moving because google sometimes continues recording even if I go to a supermarket, take a break etc

You are fine with google tracking you every waking moment?
Yes, I am aware you can be tracked via other means e.g. triangulation and some such. Still, I turn off as much as I can. I try to get as little privacy invasion as possible.

You must have good transit in your area.

Wow! 1517 kilometres in transit! You travel a lot!

If it's a work commute then it's actually fairly on track. I commute 20 miles on train everyday one way, so 40 each day. That adds up quickly

Compare it to the annual kilometres in a car, plus 10k isn't uncommon at all.

It feels like a lot, but I don’t really commute anymore so that might be why.

i can never get that number to be accurate because maps considers buses driving and i have to manually override that

Someone down voted you but you're right. I don't have any insights data because I set some privacy settings to not track.
