14. Cars and Robust Cities are Incompatible
Christopher McCahillandNorman Garrick, “Automobileuse and landconsumption: Empiricalevidencefrom12 cities”
Cities with higher rates of driving have fewer people –a difference of more than 4,000 people per square mile for each 10 percent change in automobile use.

Get help to stop driving:
consult your doctor or pharmacist
Noise and Vibration
Noise affect productivity and health
Accidents
Each year 12 million lives are lost due to vehicle accidents
Global Climate Change
Vehicles are responsible for roughly 25% of fossil-based CO2 emissions
Natural Habitats
Roadways disrupts habitats and open areas to exploitation
Waste disposal
The disposal of vehicles and vehicles parts contribute to landfill problems
Congestion
Time lost in congestion affects overall productivity
Energy security
Dependence on petrol-based mobility affects national security
Economic Efficiency
Financial capital consumed by car expenditures reduces capital for other investments
Severance
Roads sever communities and inhibit social interactions
Visual Intrusion
Car, roads and parking areas all detract from a city’s beauty
Loss of living space
Roads and parking consume large amounts of space

29. The connected car market will achieve mass-market
penetration in the next few years: the overall number of vehicles
with built-in connectivity will increase from 10% of the overall
market today to 90% by 2020.
Connected Car
• Consumers expect the same experience
and connectivity they have at any other
time and place
• Regulations and safety laws require
cars to be connected.
• New car models, such as electric cars,
require more connectivity
• Carmakers can profit from increasing
connectivity
