Opposition leader Simon Busuttil led by example and left his car at home as he cycled to work to mark this year's World Car Free Day.

Accompanied by a video of his trip on two wheels posted on Facebook, he wrote "Beat the traffic, keep fit, cycle to work! ‪#‎WorldCarFreeDay‬ 2015".

It is World Car Free Day today but Malta will be officially marking the event on Sunday.
