For many families, life without a car would be unthinkable. Not so Iris and Bjorn Kropp who live in Oldenburg, a city in north-western Germany, and who got rid of their car three-and-a-half years ago.

At the time, their children Martje and Jasper were three and nine years old, and many of the family’s friends thought they were crazy to give up their car.
