Details

Driving in Western societies is quotidian in nature; yet as the road becomes a focus of legal geography, so the vehicular environment offers a dynamic location for investigating the relationship between law and place. Roads are complex sites of movement and its prohibition, of freedom and regulation. They are a material locus of governance, in which rights of way are determined, communicated and enforced; but they also constitute a site of resistance or disruption, beyond regulation.

Addressing phenomena such as the parking space, license plates, and traffic lights, but also speed, road rage and jaywalking, this book offers a legal geography of the vehicular environment: as a dynamic landscape that challenges any tendency to presume a stable relationship between legality and spatiality.
