Description
In this episode of Good Cities, it's time to get mad at cars...again. Cars
were promised to be freedom on wheels, but most people experience driving
as forced upon them; monotonous, traffic-ridden, and expensive. Jacob Hyman
and Nathan Bird discuss how cars have made us slow, anxious, and separated
from each other. Our cities once were bustling downtowns, and now they're a
series of parking lots and crisscrossed highways. Also in this episode:
what to do to remedy the impact of the car on cities and how to oppose the
car for a better city. Welcome to Car Wars 2.
