Disability Rights Washington has launched the Week Without Driving challenge, inviting elected leaders and transportation professionals to spend a week meeting their needs without driving themselves. The challenge aims to raise awareness of the difficulties faced by non-drivers and advocate for transportation investments and policy changes that make it easier for them to get around. Participants can use public transit, ask for rides, walk, roll, scoot, or bike. The challenge has helped inform and motivate elected leaders to push for infrastructure improvements and safety plans for pedestrians and cyclists.
