Abstract

"Non-motorized shared vehicles" are gaining fans across the country. Historically, the access to these vehicles by children and families has failed. Not all vehicles, worldwide, are designed to transport children. This problem is quite often not even perceived, as the design and characteristics of these vehicles in the cities shown. At the methodological level, it was decided to elaborate a survey of existing experiences, based initially on documentary research and complemented with on-site observation, in different cities in Portugal, Spain and Brazil.  The article is illustrated with photographs of the different vehicles in those different cities. In the photographs, it is possible to observe the central problem of this work ”“ which is the lack of accessibility to shared non-motorized transport services in relation to children and families having children.
