Join them by signing up for Disability Mobility Initiative’s Week Without Driving 2022
Next Monday, September 19th, Disability Mobility Initiative will begin its Week Without Driving Challenge, which invites people to refrain from driving themselves in any vehicle, for any activity, for a full week in order to increase awareness of what it’s like to navigate the world as a nondriver. For reasons of age, ability, and economics, nearly one quarter of Washington State’s population is unable to drive, yet a lot transportation policy and investment continues to prioritize the needs of people in vehicles over those who rely on walking, rolling, and transit to get around.
To spread awareness about the valuable insights that can be gained from participating in Week Without Driving, participants from last year’s challenge made a video recounting their experiences.
