Automobile dependency
Automobile dependency is a term to capture the predicament of most English-speaking cities in the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, and to a lesser extent, large cities in the UK.
==Etymology==
Automobile dependency implies that cities where automobiles are the predominant transport deny their residents not only freedom of choice about the way they live and move around the city, but also that the culture of automobile use has produced a kind of addiction to them. The analogy is made with addictions to harmful substances and activities because of the well-known law of diminishing returns in relation to increasing use or participation: the more that is used, the less of the desired effect is gained until a point is reached where the substance or activity has to be maintained to remain 'normal', a state of dependency.
