How do life events, such as changing jobs, the birth of a child or divorce, influence travel behavior? Does this lead to an increase or a reduction in the number of trips? Do people change their travel modality following these life events? And what do developments, such as the use of Facebook and Twitter mean for car use? The answer to these and many other questions were the topic of the 2nd Netherlands Mobility Panel Symposium organized by KiM Netherlands Institute for Transport Policy Analysis on the 22nd of September 2016.  

Below is the list of presentations which were held on this very interesting day.
