It seems somewhat silly to only talk about the negative aspects of cars. What about all the benefits?

If you stop and think about it, cars are truly revolutionary. Even many low income people can buy a machine that will travel 50 miles (at 70 mph) on a gallon of liquid that costs $3.

It not only allows individuals the freedom to travel, vehicles power a massive transportation network that brings food to our tables and a ton of consumer goods to our local stores.

I would argue the automobile is one of the greatest technological inventions of the past 200 years.
