Car-free days remind me of the car-free Sundays people tell me about from the 1973 oil-crisis. They used to go cycling on the motorways - wouldn't that be fun to do again?
- ido 11y agoIsrael has 1 day per year where there's no car traffic anywhere in the country (yom kipur - no motorized transit of any kind, even trains). It's among some of my fondest memories of childhood, i wish we had something like that in Germany :) People indeed cycle, roller skate, and skateboard on the highways.
- smonff 11y agoLooks like they made this "speedway without cars" thing in Montreuil (east suburb of Paris) during this event. For the 7th year... Montreuil is a much more progressive city than Paris. http://www.lavoieestlibre.org/#la-voie-est-libre http://www.lavoieestlibre.org/#la-voie-est-libre
