I can't think of a single person who would do this unless they are already in the habit of not using their car because they live somewhere it's not necessary. Cars aren't a choice in most of North America. They are a mandatory cost of living due to the asinine way our cities are designed. If somebody is in a position to take this challenge, they probably already don't use a car very much to get around because they live somewhere it's not necessary.

You are likely right for most people, but I work with people who drive to the Tim Horton's that's 2 blocks away.
This takes longer than walking because of parking lots and one-way streets. Not everyone acts logically

Posting that now gives people the fuzzies while being far enough away to forget it in time. It's like new years resolutions.
