Sorry but how is fuel for cars essential?
Most people can use buses which on a weekly basis work out cheaper.
Most people can also use the train, which again is cheaper.
Most people have or could have a bike for a lower cost and almost free to run solution.
If there is no viable alternative for having a car then yes it's essential. Like ambulances/police/fire etc - its essential for them. We seem to have this idea that owning and running a car is essential, however it is technically still a luxury.
