Cars are essential in modern Western societies. Some even say that
our modern lifestyles would have been impossible without cars. The
dependency of Western societies on our cars is a unique situation
in history, but does not get much attention; car use is seen as
just a normal situation. The population at large knows the risks,
knows the disadvantages, experiences the advantages and keeps
driving. Using data from Western Europe, this book examines three
key themes: frequent car use, car dependence, and the future of
passenger car mobility in societies. In conclusion, in modern
Western risk societies, more attention needs to be paid to car
dependence, its driving forces, its advantages, its problems and
challenges for the future.
