by car /with car

[jazzy1]

Hi!

I was wondering if 'by' is the only prepositions used when you want to say e.g.: "I was driving by car for two hours yesterday. "
Is it possible to say also "with car"?

Thanks for the reply!

No, it's not possible.

I went by car.
I went by train.
I went by air.
I went on foot.

Hi there

other prepositions you can use

"I went to Los Angeles in my car, it took two hours"

We don't say "with car" ....we use "by " in this context.

No, it's not possible.

I went by car.
I went by train.
I went by air.
I went on foot.

You could also use more direct, action verbs.

I drove my car.
I rode in Bob's car.
I rode a train.
I flew.
I walked.
