carfree

No vehicles allowed

Carfree describes places, lifestyles, or policies that exclude or minimize automobile use.

A carfree zone prohibits vehicle traffic.

A carfree lifestyle means getting around without owning a car—by walking, cycling, or public transit.

We've been carfree for three years now.
