LA Metro’s One Car Challenge | Los Angeles News

LA Metro’s bold new “One Car Challenge” invites Angelenos to ditch one vehicle for five weeks—swap it for transit, biking, walking, or carpooling—and could earn you $600 if you stick with it. Backed by a $2 million grant and inspired by a successful Santa Monica pilot where 16% cut solo driving, the program uses the Go Carma app to track mileage (with privacy safeguards) and even allows a two-mile buffer for essential trips. Targeting households with multiple cars but open to single-car owners too, this experiment aims to reshape daily commutes in LA’s sprawling metropolis—gathering data on whether incentives can truly shift habits toward greener, less congested travel.
