Review this title

Automobiles in Growing Economies of the Developing World

by Ralph Gakenheimer

A word of warning from inveterate traveler Ralph Gakenheimer: Never ride a bicycle around downtown Shanghai. The explosive growth of cars has resulted “in mayhem” for cyclists and pedestrians. In China, there are 1.8 bikes per family, yet municipal governments eager to encourage industrial growth repress bicycles in favor of cars. Air and noise pollution are increasing all over China, much of Asia, and India, as cities double in size every few decades, sprawl over surrounding countryside, and citizens flock to motorized transport. Gakenheimer encourages testing out “congestion pricing”— taxing the use of the densest roads at the most traveled times to regulate flow and create order; bus rapid transit systems to “help keep city centers alive;” and land use planning to contain the spread of cities over agricultural lands and natural resources.
