The UK Government has shared guidance for passengers travelling in vehicles or on public transport during the coronavirus outbreak.

On the Gov website, it states: "If you are car sharing then you must not share the car with someone from outside your household or your support bubble unless your journey is undertaken for an exempt reason.

"For example, if car sharing is reasonably necessary as part of your work."
