Résumé / Abstract
Transportation has experienced extraordinary growth during the last century and still evolves throughout the twenty-first century. To clarify the changes to come, studies of the history of past habits and behaviors are essential. The knowledge of mobility in France is partly based on National Travel Surveys (NTS). In the past these surveys have been conducted five times (1966-67, 1973-74, 1981-82, 1993-94 and 2007-08), which gives five photographies of mobility for households living in France. The definitions and principles of these surveys haven't been modified since the beginning which makes the measurement of structural changes easier. The goal of this paper is to analyze the behavioral changes related to the motorization since the 1960s. The analysis of changes will be focused on the evolution of household motorization (non-motorized, with one car and multi motorized) and the number of driving license holders since the 1960s.
