Reasons You Go Car-Free

What are the various reasons you go car-free?

For those who drive, this can relate to moments during the week that you make a specific choice to leave the car at home.

For those who live a completely or predominantly car-free lifestyle, this can relate to your core reasons to live that way.

Reasons might include:

  • Cost of car ownership & upkeep
  • Simply preferring other modes of mobility
  • Experiencing stress while driving / in traffic conditions
  • Dislike driving
  • Environmental reasons
  • Past trauma (from accidents)
  • Simply never having been dependent on car use
  • Enjoying the exercise & movement that other mobilities provide
  • Traffic in your community (quicker to choose other modes)
