Hot Cars, Car Crashes
What is at the heart of cool cars everywhere? Is it the speed
they can travel at? Is it the thought of the wind brushing your
hair? If it's the latter, then you have a soft top (convertible),
or someone's pinched your roof!
Well, it could be either of these things. Or perhaps cool
cars mean something else to you entirely. But to me, it is
the shape of the car. Not so much cool cars but cool curves
... Sexist? Perhaps, but true none the less. I think a classic
car is defined by it's architecture.
Look at any sports models over the years. What has defined
them, made them stand out? Ok, the price is one thing, but
take a step back and really think about what makes a hot car
so cool?
There is something else that makes a car cool, at least as
far as I am concerned. And that is the interior. Or to be
more precise, what the interior is made of. My first car lives
in my memory to this day, and surely that is the mark of a
cool car. I can remember the smell of the leather seats and
look of the wooden dash surround. Plastic just doesn't cut
it, especially not in more mass produced models.
For me personally, low is cool. The closer I am to the ground,
the better I feel. Some people like to have a high vantage
point, and perhaps that is cool to them. It certainly helps
to have a better view of the road from a practical point of
view.
Car Crashes
Several factors may lead to car crashes. One of the most
common is drunken and drugged driving. In present times, cell
phones are also becoming another major cause. Hand held devices
are banned almost everywhere during driving. Even hands-free
mobile phones are dangerous as they distract the driver’s
attention from what is going on on the road. Eating or drinking
while at the wheel, talking to the passengers, listening to
the music while driving are all factors that make people involved
in car crashes. Speeding and inattentive driving also account
for a major amount of car crashes every year. Another significant
cause is the pedestrians who do not obey traffic rules, especially
while crossing roads.
Following simple road safety measures could help prevent
a huge number of road accidents. This even applies to pedestrians
and cyclists on the road. Be attentive on the road and find
