A new federal tool helps Americans see at a glance exactly how deadly traffic violence is in their community — and how their neighbors stack up. 

In most U.S. metros, renters and buyers alike pay a steep premium to live in walkable neighborhoods, a new report finds — except for a small handful of U.S. cities where they actually cost less than car-dominated ones.

A new federal "megagrant" program will fund major safety and transit projects that have been at the top of sustainable transportation advocates' wishlists for years ... along with business-as-usual highway expansion projects that could negate those mega-gains.

People raised in a car-dominated culture are measurably more likely to accept the societal harms and inequities associated with driving than other public health threats — and undoing those powerful double standards will require a profound rewiring of the way we think about the world.
