Mon itinérant aide aussi les food trucks à participer à des évènements privatisant des commerces ambulants, et crée des partenariats pour proposer divers avantages à ses adhérents."

"Mobile Game Theaters go by many names: game truck, game bus, video game party truck, and the list goes on. As varied as are the names, so is the quality of the game theater. We want to help people locate other quality mobile game theaters around the U.S. and Canada. This list is by no means exhaustive; it should not be thought that a game truck not appearing on this list is not a high quality. These game theaters are all a great choice for your video game birthday party, or other fun event idea or easy party idea."

"ll India Permit is a project that wants to breathe new life into the vanishing tradition of Indian truck art. The 5.5 million kilometer-long road network of India is nothing short of an art gallery. Truck art has been a traditional form of art in India for generations of truckers, who spend 60% of their lives on the road. Many truck drivers find solace in their art - using it to pay homage, voice their feelings or even just to remember their home."

"Here in the US, we've got some pretty great pickups and 4WD vehicles to choose from. We've also got plenty of cool communities to go on off-road adventures with. But after a month of driving trucks around South America, I'm starting to think they do trucks even better. Here's why."

"Since then, developed countries have cut back on those cooling aerosols for the purpose of countering regular air pollution, which has likely increased the net climate pollution of the power generation industry. But according to the Union of Concerned Scientists, "collectively, cars and trucks account for nearly one-fifth of all U.S. emissions," while "in total, the U.S. transportation sector-which includes cars, trucks, planes, trains, ships, and freight-produces nearly thirty percent of all US global warming emissions ... ." In fact, transportation is now the largest source of carbon dioxide emissions in the United States-and it has been for two years, according to an analysis from the Rhodium Group."

"It's the flip-side to the "retail apocalypse:" A siege of delivery trucks is threatening to choke cities with traffic. But not everyone agrees on what to do about it."

"I've written enough about walking around the city's neighbourhoods (Ed. Really?) What follows is a quick sampling of a hugely diverse range of small vehicles-the tip of the tip of the iceberg-that also contribute to the quality of the city's streets. I'll no doubt update it with each subsequent trip I take. It's like a version of Richard Scarry's Cars and Trucks and Things That Go, but with an emphasis on the Things That Go rather than the Cars and Trucks. And set in Tokyo. Imagine the drivers as tanuki rather than cats and dogs. When visiting Tokyo, if you are attuned to eating the world with your eyes and particularly the layers of urban life bigger than a cellphone and smaller than a building, one of the first things you'll notice is how comparatively small the vehicles seem to be. Then, the sheer variety of these small vehicles. And then, how these vehicles, by virtue of their humble and appropriate scale and speed, help produce the city's often delightfully humane streets. And then finally, that these small vehicles are scurrying around the world's largest city. By way of comparison, the municipal and commercial vehicles blasting around Manhattan, for example, are more like hulking tanks, built for battle, apparently ready to face off against the army of gargantuan SUVs contesting the same spaces. But in Tokyo, a city three times larger, the small scale of the vehicles makes instinctive sense. I've written before about how Tokyo is actually defined by smallness and slowness, drawing from the great work of Keio University's Darko Radovic and Davisi Boontharm, amongst others."

"Waltham Forest's new zero-emissions delivery service aims to replace polluting trucks for local deliveries of food, online purchases and more"

"1,700 cyclists have been hit by cars and trucks in four years, with one in four drivers failing to stop. Personalised ghost bikes are an effort to show people noticed when someone was killed - and give their families some closure"

"A vehicle security checkpoint on Wall Street. After 9/11, the bronze bollards were installed on a turntable to create an attractive checkpoint. When they stopped working, white striped truck barriers, fences, and concrete barriers were added."

"The roar of internal combustion engines is a familiar sound to anyone living in a large city, but whisper-quiet electric vehicles (EVs) pose a different problem-they provide almost no audible warning for pedestrians and cyclists. Regulators are considering rules that will require EVs to make more noise, but so far there is no consensus for what kind of sound an EV should make. + "It's important that [sounds] are audible for people who need to hear them, but not annoying for everyone else," says Torben Holm Pedersen, Senior Technology Specialist at SenseLab, the acoustic technology unit of Danish technology company Delta. Pedersen and the team at SenseLab have developed a range of hypothetical EV sounds-you can listen to them below-and tested them for perceptibility and irritation. There are no plans yet for these designs to be used in the wild, but they have provided important data points on effective EV sound. + SenseLab experimented with four experimental sounds: Q4noise, Jet4low, Natural hum and Low friction. These were tested for "suitability"-a measure of annoyance versus effectiveness-against sounds you might hear today, like a 2010 Mitsubishi Colt ("Mitsu 1156 rpm") or a "Big truck"."

"« L'achat d'un camion neuf était trop lourd pour moi alors j'ai déposé un dossier au PNR avec l'aide du Conseil général et de la Chambre de Métiers et de l'Artisanat, précise Philippe Ciblac. Sans cette aide, j'aurai arrêté la tournée. » Un volet humain de sa profession qui lui plaît pourtant particulièrement. « C'est ma bouffée d'oxygène, ce n'est pas du tout la même relation que dans le magasin. La plupart sont des personnes âgées qui ne voient pas grand monde dans la journée alors je leur amène aussi quelques courses, le journal, ce qu'ils me demandent. C'est un service de proximité mais qui se perd. Et nous avons de moins en moins d'habitants aussi. »"
