Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct
answer to each of the questions from 36 to 42.
The private car is assumed to have widened human horizons and increased human mobility. When we
consider children’s mobility, they can be driven to more places and more distant places than they could visit
without access to a motor vehicle. However, allowing our cities to be dominated by cars has progressively
eroded children’s independent mobility. Children have lost much of their freedom to explore their own
neighbourhood or city without adult supervision.
Children’s independent access to their local streets may be important for their own personal, mental
and psychological development. Allowing them to get to know their own neighbourhood and community
gives them a ‘sense of place’. This depends on active exploration, which is not provided for when children
are passengers in cars. Such children may see more, but learn less.
The reduction in children’s freedom may also contribute to a weakening sense of local community.
As fewer children and adults use the streets as pedestrians, they become less sociable places. There is less
opportunity for children and adults to have the spontaneous exchanges that lead to a feeling of community.
This in itself may increase crimes targeted at children because there are now fewer adults available who
know their neighbours’ children and who can look out for their safety.
The extra traffic involved in transporting children results in increased traffic congestion, pollution,
and accident risk. As our roads become more dangerous, more parents drive their children to more places,
thus contributing to increased levels of danger for the remaining pedestrians. Thus, there are also important
environmental implications of children’s loss of freedom.
It is now time to accept the view that the function of streets is not solely to provide mobility for cars.
They may also be for social interaction, walking, cycling and playing. Perhaps it will be our concern for our
children’s welfare that convinces us that we need to challenge the dominance of the car in our cities.
