Car-light living means you plan most trips without driving. You walk, bike or ride transit, and you use a car for the trips that need one. It is not the same as car-free.
What it takes
- A place to keep a bike.
- A transit stop you can reach.
- Errands within a short trip.
- A plan for the trips that need a car.
