The experts seem to favor that the measures taken last Friday by the Council of Ministers to reduce fuel consumption, they will not give results expected by the government. From those who believe that this reduction would not even symbolic 1% to others who put on something a little more, around 5%.
Among all the raids we've done to seek opinions supported by arguments, we have laid hold of the one containing this blog, which backs them with rigorous scientific basis. Worth read the whole thing, but here some of the arguments: " According curves Wirtschaftpolitik und Institut für Wirtschaftsforschung (IWW) , the Karlsruhe University, the cost of operating a light vehicle at 120 km / h is 0.1225 € / km, and 110km / h is 0.1169 € / km. Well, here in my town is a reduction of 4.6%. There is no lost the battle, as another of the measures taken to reduce slightly train fares, so I guess I want people to stop using the car to go to the train. To make a calculus roughly the results of this, we assume an elasticity of 0.5 between traffic and travel time (not me, it says more or less any transportation economist, for putting a link, it says here). This means that if we lower the speed by 10%, traffic will fall by 5%, half. Since we are slowing down 8.3%, we can assume that traffic will be reduced by 4.15%. So joining the savings to consume less by going slowly and saving because people leave the car, we can gather up to 9%. Well, not 15% was said, but meh, not far away.
Now comes the other party. By going slowly, it takes longer. And time is money. Let us assume a value of 9 € per person / h, which is more or less what he proposes HEATCO (which more or less fixed by European standards) for commuters in Spain. Hours of travel is lost productivity, the end of the day. Well, what we are. At a distance of 100km (for instance, which makes it easy to understand this), if we are to 110 instead of 120, we lose about 4:30 min. This means that, at 9 € / h, 4:30 minutes, as if this was the one, two, three, go € 0.68 lost, time wasted going back and forth.
Actually, the price of gasoline without tax is around 0.65 € / liter in Spain today. So what we save is 0.72 liters to 0.65 € per liter, 0.47 €. Well, if you save € 0.47 for petrol, but we lose € 0.68 in time, does not seem to leave the play very well. "
We refer to the case of the Suburban. If prices are lowered by 5%, the Operator will cease to enter the money, creating a larger deficit by that amount, to be covered by all taxpayers, rather than by those who travel, which it favors. Because, let's not forget that not all population benefits English commuter service, only residents in 12 urban and metropolitan areas. A man of Lugo and Teruel, must now pay a 5% tax, it serves no benefit.
What happens to the Transport Consortia, for Madrid, who have a close relationship between their subscriptions? "RENFE cut their tickets and the consortium? How do you eat this?
If anyone knows, please answer us.

continue the evolution of the collection of fines, just in case.
UPDATE:
As expected, be set up gibberish. Blanco urged the government to lower ticket Madrid Metro and Regional Transport Consortium , and the Minister of Transport has said that odd. Moreover, l Catalan and I have asked the central government to compensate the Generalitat by the reduction of 5% they do not want. So goes the playground. As always.
