I don't think you can compare the two, and our economy is moving away from being a 9am-5pm Mon-Fri job. Public transport networks are still largely behind with this, although I recognise that GNE have moved some services to 24/7 and provide later runs, specifically for shift workers.
I passed the First Group HQ in Aberdeen earlier in the week, and I was surprised just how big the car park was. Having since looked at it on Google Maps, its bigger than I thought.
Another example is Stagecoach, who still issue company cars to senior managers.
You'll never convince the public to switch away from a private car, if you cannot convince your own staff.
