TY - JOUR PY - 2012// TI - Speed and blood on the bypass: the new automobilities of inter-war London JO - Urban Hist. A1 - Law, Michael John SP - 490 EP - 509 VL - 39 IS - N2 - The article considers the impact of new arterial roads on the mobilities of the wealthier inter-war Londoner, and argues that they occasioned an emergent form of automobility that was modern, sensational and exciting for the metropolitan driver, but was also highly dangerous, particularly for pedestrians and cyclists living in suburban homes near these roads.
