"Clean air, safer streets and a stable climate are among the reasons doctors
and environmental experts want fewer cars clogging our roads. Reduced
dependence on fuel – especially when prices are high and most countries rely on
imports – is another.

Yet while some cities with world-class public transport are debating how to
tackle the stubborn minority of journeys still made by car, others –
particularly in the US – have become so dependent on driving that opting out is
almost impossible.

From connecting commuter suburbs to persuading royals to use buses, here are
four expert-backed ways for tackling car culture."
