description	This article approaches urban mobility and its consequences to urban health. In addition, it presents recent studies about the subject and the historical reasons that have transformed the automobile into the main Brazilian means of transport, at least to the higher classes, to the detriment of public transport, used by the great mass of workers. The excessive use of automobiles affects air quality, and this, added to stress, vibration and noise, damages the health and the quality of life of the population that is exposed to the problems caused by long traffic jams. In Rio de Janeiro, this phenomenon has reached a delicate stage, in the moment that the metropolis is preparing itself to receive the 2014 World Cup and the 2016 Olympic Games.
