Cars kill people and economies.
Traffic is like sandpaper, grinding the life from our neighbourhoods.
The heart of the community, our street, the precious centre of our beloved neighbourhood, is daily torn apart by the chaos of an appallingly planned transport nightmare, which kills 40 people a week in Australia - two Thredbo landslides or a Port Arthur massacre every week. Traffic dominates our public spaces. Just look at the warzone of the Eastern Distributor and the devastation of Moore Park. But roads are public space - commons, for the use of all citizens. Streets, once the open forum of daily life, are now the open sewers of the car cult.
