Abstract
The enlarged use of automobiles has multiplied certain side effects, such as congestion, growing number of casualties in traffic accidents, noise, air pollution, rapid warming and destruction of the ozone layer. These factors directly or indirectly affect the quality of life of the inhabitants of large cities. It is clear that the pollution problems may be reduced by the use of “cleaner“ technologies in the operation of motor vehicles. The other problems are associated with the increasing use of motor vehicles, and cannot be solved in this way. They are related to the impact on health (injuries in traffic accidents and decreasing physical activity), economy (severe traffic congestion and extended travel time), environment (occupation of green spaces, noise), and society (alienation and space reduction). Modern approaches in solving the above mentioned issues can be found in the principles of sustainable development. The reduction of the use of motor vehicles is realized by taking “soft measures“, such as: making use of various forms of communication, advertizing and education aiming at altered attitude and behaviour in local community.
