Hit the Brakes!

Klaus Gietinger

Our Future Without Cars

Cars claim millions of lives every year, they pollute the air, and they poison our atmosphere. The almighty car industry has us in a tight grip. Driving is addictive, we are the junkies, and the politicians, the corporations, and the media are our cartel promising us more mobility while only bringing us more traffic jams, and more deaths. Klaus Gietinger says the time is ripe. It is time for a hard stop!

“The journalist of Frankfurt dares to demonize the car, ‘the German's beloved child,’ in many books.”

“In his book, Gietinger demands an emergency stop. No traffic turnaround but a traffic revolution.”  

“A very recommended reading, not only for proponents, but especially for sceptics and the eternal people among us who like to continue living in the past, those who cannot imagine a life without a car.”
