20220921 Untangling Transportation – No Cars Required Originally Aired September 21, 2022, on ACB Media 5 On September 22nd, Car Free Day encourages motorists around the world to give up their vehicles for a day. Newsflash! Those of us who are blind or have low vision does this daily. So, we can skip all the oohs, ahs, and OMGs our car-loving neighbors might be voicing at the very notion of going a day without driving. Instead, we can take the time to talk about life as a pedestrian—the good, the bad, and the challenging. We’ve got a very special guest to help us do just that. Becky Davidson is First Vice-President of the North Carolina Council of the Blind; Co-Chairperson of ACB’s Pedestrian Environmental Access Committee: and a long-time advocate for Accessible Pedestrian Signals (APS) and anything else that helps to increase pedestrian safety. So, we discussed APS and pedestrian safety and the link between community accessibility and public transportation. We took a few minutes to dream about what a world could look like without so many cars. Sponsored by Accessible Avenue
