{{Use dmy dates|date=November 2018}}{{About|a hypothesis that vehicle use in some developed countries has peaked and will decline|times when traffic is heavy|rush hour}}

Peak car (also peak car use or peak travel) is a hypothesis that motor vehicle distance traveled per capita, predominantly by private car, has peaked and will now fall in a sustained manner. The theory was developed as an alternative to the prevailing market saturation model, which suggested that car use would saturate and then remain reasonably constant, or to GDP-based theories which predict that traffic will increase again as the economy improves, linking recent traffic reductions to the Great Recession of 2008.

The theory was proposed following reductions, which have now been observed in Australia,[1] Belgium,[1] France,[1] Germany, Iceland, Japan (early 1990s), New Zealand,[1] Sweden, the United Kingdom (many cities from about 1994) and the United States.

A study by Volpe Transportation in 2013 noted that average miles driven by individuals in the United States has been declining from {{convert|900|miles}} per month in 2004 to {{convert|820|miles}} in July 2012, and that the decline had continued since the recent upturn in the US economy.[5]

A number of prominent academics have written in support of the theory, including Emeritus Professor Phil Goodwin, formerly Director of the transport research groups at Oxford University and UCL, and Professor David Metz, a former Chief Scientist of the UK Department of Transport. The theory is disputed by the UK Department for Transport, which predicts that road traffic in the United Kingdom will grow by 50% over the coming 25 years and Professor Stephen Glaister, Director of the RAC Foundation, who say traffic will start increasing again as the economy improves. Unlike peak oil, a theory based on a reduction in the ability to extract oil due to resource depletion, peak car is attributed to more complex and less understood causes.{{Citation needed|date=June 2014}}

History

Saturation model

The idea that car use would eventually reach a saturation level and stop growing further seems to have been around since the 1930s.{{citation needed|date=April 2012}} In Traffic in Towns, a report produced in 1963 for the UK Ministry of Transport, Professor Sir Colin Buchanan suggested that traffic would saturate early in the 21st century. It has certainly been used in official traffic forecasting since the 1970s, for example in a UK Government study by Tulpule (1973) which forecast that car ownership would reach its maximum level by about 2010, with car use showing little further growth after that point.[1]

In a series of international comparisons starting in 1993 and continuing until his death in 2011, the American researcher Lee Schipper[2][3] and his colleagues noted that car traffic growth had slowed or ceased in a number of developed economies.

'Peak car' theory

The 'peak car' hypothesis was proposed after declines in traffic during the morning peak period were observed from the mid 1990s in some places and at a national level since about 2008. Local Transport Today, a professional transport journal in the United Kingdom that the number "peak car traffic" entering Britain's town and city centres during the morning peak hours had declined significantly over the previous ten years; of 21 areas studied all except Leeds had seen falls.[9] Traffic into London during the morning peak period had fallen 28% between 1994 and 2003 when the London congestion charge was introduced and a further 12% by 2004.[9] Inbound car trip into Birmingham during the morning peak period had fallen by 29% between 1995 and 2003.[4]

Between June and September 2010 Professor Phil Goodwin published a series of articles in the UK professional transport press suggesting that data showed not merely a plateau in vehicle miles driven but rather a decline in overall automobile usage per capita.[5][6][7][8] These articles were later compiled and updated in a journal article by Goodwin, published in 2011.[9]

David Metz, of University College London and former Chief Scientist of the UK Department of Transport noted that "peak car use came and went [in the UK] at least 15 years ago, when none of us noticed".[10] He then published articles in 2010 and 2012 suggesting that the Department's forecasts of growth were erroneous because in the UK a saturated peak level had already been reached.[11][12]

In November 2010 by Millard-Ball and Schipper presented data confirming the trend in cities in eight nations: United States, Canada, Sweden, France, Germany, the United Kingdom, Japan and Australia.[13][14][15] Newman and Kenworthy published an article in June 2011 suggesting that the effect was also valid for Australia.[16]

By 2016, several papers[17][18][19] have cast doubt on the peak car phenomenon, demonstrating that economic and sociodemographic factors account for most or all of the observed slowdowns. Recent statistics in the US show total vehicle-miles traveled (VMT) increasing after several years of decline,[20] although per-capita VMT remains below its all-time high.

Proposed causes

There is speculation about causes of a decline in automobile usage. Analysts such as Newman[16] as well as views expressed in the journal edited by Melia entitled World Transport Policy and Practice[21] point to various interrelated causes. Factors include:

  1. Travel time budgets, a theoretical psychological limit suggesting a long term constraint on the amount of time people allocate to travel of about one hour a day. Studies using this concept (albeit not always defined in the same way) have included those of Zahavi (1974),&91;22&93; Mogridge (1983)&91;23&93; and Metz (2010) who suggested that saturation would naturally follow from the observation that access to destinations increased with the square of speed, but was offset by the tendency for each additional choice of destination to offer less and less extra benefit. A version was suggested by Marchetti, sometimes called 'the Marchetti Wall'; when cities become more than "one hour wide," they stop growing or they become dysfunctional, or both.&91;24&93;
  2. The growth of public transport. For example, railway travel in the United Kingdom has been undergoing a renaissance, according to one view.&91;33&93; In the US Amtrak has posted record ridership for every year since 2000 with the exception of 2009.&91;25&93;&91;26&93;
  3. The reversal of urban sprawl and other population shifts from suburbs to cities.&91;36&93;
  4. The growth of a culture of urbanism.
  5. The ageing of cities, especially their road infrastructure, much of which is at or near the end of its intended life.
  6. Rising fuel prices.&91;36&93;
  7. Increasing costs of automobile ownership,&91;27&93; including costs for insurance and parking.
  8. Traffic-reducing policies such as the "pedestrianisation" of city centres, traffic calming, parking control, congestion charging.
  9. Proliferation of different ways to own and hire vehicles, such as Streetcar, Zipcar, and Whipcar,&91;39&93; as well as other options for car sharing.&91;1&93;
  10. Reallocation of road capacity away from cars towards bikes and pedestrian traffic resulting in disappearing traffic.
  11. Cultural shifts especially among young people for whom acquisition of a driving licence is now seen less as a key rite of passage into adulthood, and is reflected in recent reductions in the propensity of young people to acquire driving licences. One report suggests there has been a shift in notions about status: the car is no longer a "big prestige item" as in previous decades.&91;39&93; For millennials and digital natives, there is less focus on ownership of things, especially big-ticket items such as cars.&91;39&93; Millennials see cars as "as mere appliances—unnecessary, pricey ones that they’ll try to avoid".&91;1&93;
  12. Legal restrictions; for example, restrictions on teenagers seeking driving licences.&91;27&93;
  13. Demographic changes; for example, baby boomers drive less as they age, according to one view.&91;27&93;
  14. Economic factors, particularly unemployment.&91;36&93;
  15. Saturation of demand in the sense that there has been a "levelling-off" of possible places to travel to by car.&91;39&93; According to this view, when road networks were expanding, there were numerous options of new places to drive to, but as road networks have generally stopped expanding, the demand for increased car travel has become saturated.&91;39&93;
  16. Growth of e-commerce such as tele-shopping, conferences, and smartphone or computer-based social networks. According to this view, these developments have reduced the need for travel by car, such that the "love affair with the phone" has replaced the "love affair with the car" for a proportion of the population, and that widespread use of cell phones and Skype meant there was less need for in-person visits.&91;28&93; However, a contrasting view suggested that e-commerce was not a substantial factor explaining less car travel in the United States.&91;27&93; Still, countries with higher use of the Internet correlated with fewer 20- to 24-year-olds getting drivers' licenses.&91;28&93;

One analyst explained about changing attitudes of young people:

{{Quote|Virtual contact through electronic means reduces the need for actual contact among young people ... Furthermore, some young people feel that driving interferes with texting.|Michael Sivak, University of Michigan, 2012[28]}}

Another elaborated about the saturation of demand hypothesis:

{{Quote|They say as we get richer, we'll want to travel more. There's no limit. Our hunch was that this might not be the case. ... The data that we have shows fairly clearly that the growth in travel demand has stopped in every industrialised country that we looked at.|Adam Millard-Ball, McGill University[39]}}

The proposition that car usage has peaked has been disputed regarding vehicle usage in the United Kingdom. In December 2010, Stephen Glaister, the Director of the RAC Foundation, suggested that total traffic has grown more or less as a straight line since the 1950s and such growth will recommence when economic conditions improve;[29] in 2011, the UK Department for Transport predicted a 50% growth in traffic in the coming 25 years.[30] In addition, a corroborating view by Paul Watters suggested that car usage will continue to be important in Britain, and that there won't be “shattering change” by 2020.[39] Scholars studying transport and socio-technical transitions have elaborated possible future scenarios for car use in England and the Netherlands.[31]

The advent of autonomous cars is likely to accelerate the decline in car ownership. {{citation needed|date=September 2017}}A recent case study by the OECD International Transport Forum[32] suggested Lisbon could maintain current levels of mobility with an autonomous car share fleet one tenth the size of its current vehicle fleet.

Declines in specific countries

Germany

The city of Hamburg in its so-called Green Network Plan, is considering ways of phasing out automobile traffic in the city center over the next two decades by increasing public transportation and adding special routes for cyclists and people on foot.[38]

United Kingdom

One report suggested driving in the United Kingdom has been declining since 1990.[1] The number of 17- to 20-year-olds with driving licences declined from 48% during the early-1990s to 35% in 2011, according to one report.[39] Traffic by cars and taxis has declined since 2007.[39] One report suggested renewed growth in rail travel, such that there was a "rail renaissance" underway.[40] The City of London has been experiencing a fall in the number of cars on the roads.[40]

United States

A report in Time Magazine suggested Americans are "driving less and less each year."[41] It noted that fewer Americans were "commuting solo" to work.[41] Road congestion nationwide declined by 27% in 2011.[41] There is some evidence of a generational shift. For example, one 24-year-old with a car moved to Washington, D.C. for work purposes but did not bring her car, and she explained:

{{Quote|I don't need (my car). My apartment is just over a mile from my office, so I walk every day... I think I might give it to my parents...|Leslie Norrington, quoted in Scientific American, 2013[28]}}

According to transportation consultant Roy Kienitz, driving habits began to change in 2004 before the 2007-2010 recession started.[28]
