Automobiles are vehicles that transport people and their belongings. They are usually four-wheeled and powered by an internal combustion engine or an electric motor.
The automobile revolutionized transportation in the first half of the twentieth century, and it remains the largest industry in the world. It provides one out of every six jobs in the United States and is the single most important consumer of petroleum products and a major purchaser of steel, cement and many other industrial goods.
Cars OPENS UP THE WORLD:
The ability to travel around easily with your own vehicle allows you to move and live in different places without having to worry about public transportation. This also enables you to reach out to new people and make friends that you may not have met otherwise.
You can also protect yourself from others by having your own car; you won’t have to worry about other people’s hygiene issues in a bus or taxi. You can also have a more private place to stay, which is important for some people who aren’t comfortable with other people in their lives.
Getting to where you need to go is easy when you have your own vehicle; you can get to your destination on time. This can help you get the most out of your day.
