Taking part in World Car Free Day

Wednesday 22 September was World Car Free Day. A worthy idea for sure, but I wonder whether it smacks of tokenism. After all, it's easy to assuage your guilt over car use by not using the car for one day.

On the other hands, for those of us who can't or won't or don't drive for whatever reason, every day is Car Free Day. And so it was for us. More walking, cycling and public transport was the order of the day.
