ZipCar (Formerly StreetCar) has a fleet of 16 vehicles based in the city and City Car Club has around 50 cars, both within the city centre and in suburban areas.

Famous quotes containing the words car and/or clubs:
“If a man, cautious,
hides his limp,
Somebody has to limp it! Things
do it; the surroundings limp.
House walls get scars,
the car breaks down; matter, in drudgery, takes it up.”
—Robert Bly (b. 1926)
“It is always a practical difficulty with clubs to regulate the laws of election so as to exclude peremptorily every social nuisance. Nobody wishes bad manners. We must have loyalty and character.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
