Driven to Madness: How cars are ruining our lives
Season 1
Episode 985
Published 2 years, 9 months ago
Description
Cars are making us unhappy and unhealthy. From poor air quality, to mind numbing commutes and gridlocked city centres. Can anything be done to change car culture – or are we already on a highway to hell? Ros Taylor sits down with journalist and author of Carmageddon, Daniel Knowles, to discuss the rise of automobiles and asks if it’s too late to course correct.
- “The problem to the average driver isn’t you, it’s everything else. ”
- “I think the car industry likes the idea of reducing civilian deaths without slowing down cars.”
