The Four Wheel Detox is a forthcoming book about what your car is doing - not to the environment and the rest of the world, but to you, inside the car. It's about how owning a car means being more overweight, more unhealthy and more stressed. Having less cash and less time. And maybe living a shorter life.
The book sets out how to take The Four Wheel Detox: taking the four wheels out of your life.
This site includes extracts from a chapter in the book about Carfree Choosers - people like Dave Gorman describe why they took the Four Wheel Detox and gave up owning a car. Others, like Alistair McGowan, describe not owning a car, and not wanting to.
There's more on the reasons for taking The Four Wheel Detox, and more information about the ideas behind the book at:
and there's a blog about living without a car.
