🚶‍♀️🚴‍♂️ Join the Week Without Driving Challenge – September 30th to October 6th! 🚇🚌
Ever thought about how challenging it can be for those who don't drive to get around? The Week Without Driving is all about raising awareness of the struggles nondrivers face every day. This challenge encourages us to reflect on our transportation system's gaps and inspires decision-makers to make it more accessible for everyone.
Especially in rural Oklahoma, we have all seen the huge amount of miles you have to cover before getting to essential locations like the grocery store, doctor's offices, and places of employment.
Did you know that in the Northwest area:

33% of households have 1 vehicle or no vehicle at all.

The average commute time to work is 20 minutes.
The rules are simple: you can get around however you choose—just don’t drive yourself. It's not a disability simulation or a competition to see how easily you can find alternatives. If you end up driving, that's okay! The goal is to think about the choices someone without the option to drive might have to make.
Anyone can take part in this challenge! Whether you want to participate as an individual, get your coworkers involved, or sign up as an elected leader or advocacy organization, your participation can make a difference.
Let’s work together to create a more inclusive transportation system for all! 🌍💬 #WeekWithoutDriving #InclusiveTransportation #accessibilitymatters #Americawalks
