摘　　要：With the constant and ever-growing pressure from governing bodies for increased sustainability of transportation systems,the need for changes in the travel behaviours of the inhabitants of suburban and urban areas seems inevitable.Thus a shift from cars to vehicles with higher occupancy rates or other more environmental friendly travel modes needs to be a priority.This requires understanding the reasons why people choose cars as their preferred mode of travel for commutes in order to make informed decisions about how to encourage changes in commuter travel behaviors.This paper presents a case study of four mediumsized Czech towns,including a survey concerning pre-and post-COVID-19 travel habits focused on identifying and understanding the willingness of car-dependent commuters to change their mode of travel choice.This three-stage survey revealed a small,COVID pandemia-based effect on the habits of respondents and helped to identify sensitivities survey participants had to particular travel parameters and characteristics that might be used by municipalities to implement informed policies that could lead to changes in travel behaviours.
