Story Spotlights

Whether you drive or not, the first step to improving access is sharing your story!

“I’ve been visually impaired my whole life and cannot drive. This issue highlights the inequities that people with disabilities or those who cannot drive face when trying to get around.” – David A.

“Although I have a car now, I’m excited to participate in a Week Without Driving and hope many people will remember that cars are a dangerous luxury and privilege, not a right.” – Symone S.

“I like how I can hear birds on a walk, celebrate my strong body when I bike, and connect with people who I pass by. It’s connecting with community and nature for me at the micro level and at the macro level it’s human’s collective impact on the livability of our planet.” – Kayla M.
