人们普遍认为，长途和不舒适的旅行会给通勤者带来压力，从而产生疲劳并损害健康。Liepmann（1944）引用了许多支持这一观点的陈述，但指出客观证据不足，有时不一致。诺曼（Norman，1959年）在一份关于伦敦旅行者健康状况的报告中指出，没有证据表明每天上下班两三个小时的人的健康状况比“住在商店对面”的人差。他引用了威廉姆斯和赫希（Hirch，1950）的研究来支持他的观点，即乘坐公共汽车和地铁旅行不会增加传染病的传播，但他自己对公共汽车司机和售票员患病率的研究只能提供乘客的间接证据。
It is a common belief that long and uncomfortable journeys impose a strain upon the commuter which produces fatigue and impairs health. Liepmann (1944) cites many statements in support of this view but noted that objective evidence was scanty and sometimes inconsistent. In a review of the health of London's travelling public, Norman (1959) stated that there was no evidence that those who commuted for two or three hours every day were any less fit than those who 'lived over the shop'. He quoted the study of Williams and Hirch (1950) in support of his statement that travel in buses and underground trains did not increase the spread of infectious disease, but his own studies on sickness rates among bus drivers and conductors could provide only indirect evidence on passengers.
