Earlier this week, I decided to ditch my car for a month (or at least try) and I joined the Zip Car Low Car Diet. I’ll be taking MARTA, walking and cycling more, and borrowing Zip Cars. For this month-long, self-induced diet, Zip Car is picking up the tab for my MARTA pass and they also offered a certain number of dollar credits to supplement where MARTA does not go.
Diets can pose challenges and this one is no different. I need to pick up my daughter by 6 p.m. from daycare every weekday. For the first day, I reserved a Zip Car just in case until I get the new commute down to a system.
I’m not stranger to public transportation. I used it for years until I moved south.
So my first day on the Zip Car diet went reasonably well. I left the house, walked to MARTA, and got to work ten minutes early. What a great start.
