Cars and Seatbelts

Posted by admin

The technological world experienced great changes that were mainly brought about by inventions and discoveries. One of the greatest inventions of man is the automobile. It has evolved from form to from, from models to models and have luxuriated the many lives of people across the globe. However, this invention also invited certain things that are quite uninvited: road accidents. Through the years, the rate of road accidents grew. In accordance with this, science has once again brought to the world a feature of automobile that would bring great effect to the way people drive: seatbelts. Indeed, this invention brought about change. The purpose of this invention is to reduce the deaths in the many inevitable road accidents. It sure served its purpose but it also brought with it quite a deadly mentality.

The seatbelt’s purpose is to prevent death and injuries in driving accidents; it undoubtedly served this purpose; and many people knew that it worked. Knowing that they are safe from injury and death with seatbelt, the people, instead of driving carefully in the streets, started to drive more recklessly. As a result of this mentality, the rate of accidents that happened on the streets even rose, although it must be said that the number of people who were injured or who died were decreased.

The invention for cars was quite successful. But then since it produced unwanted bumper counts, it is still considered a defective way of preventing accidents.

Herbie

Posted by admin

As a little child, one often wonders how it would be like if he were to encounter a lively car and actually drive by with him with even just one ride home. Well, this won’t be much of a wonder for Lindsey Lohan in her movie about Herbie; her very much lively car; lively in a sense that it is alive and kicking! Well, one should not be that terrified. It is not one of Stephen King’s cars in his Maximum Overdrive, where the cars go nuts and starts their revolution against their human masters.

Herbie is not an evil car that could drive everyone mad. Although it should be admitted that it is madness to see an actual car, driving on its own, minding its own business while its driver sits in the driver’s seat looking outside the window seemingly searching for some beautiful scenery as though she were seated at the passenger’s seat. No one really knows how Herbie got his life or how he managed to lived such a long life that he still came to see Lohan’s time. But though it is a mystery, it still does not rob the movie of its magnificent wonders that surrounds the car and his driver; in fact, it even gives the film a sting.
