It's so funny looking back, but my so-called overnight success actually took 15 years. I remember when I didn't have any money, and my only car was mom's Hyundai.
People are so bad at driving cars that computers don't have to be that good to be much better. Any time you stand in line at the D. M. V. and look around, you're like, Oh, my God, I wish all these people were replaced by computer drivers.
My uncle was the first brown person to have a market stall on Petticoat Lane in the 1960s. He worked his way up from the street. He was homeless, but eventually he got a car so he could sell from the boot. And by the 1980s, he was a millionaire wholesaling to companies like Topshop. So in a way, fashion put me in England.
Back in the '60s, there was a car sticker that read, 'Forget Oxfam, Feed Twiggy,' but I ate like a horse.
The SUV was the only car moving. Josh had his foot pressed flat to the floor, and the needle on the speedometer hovered close to eighty. He was becoming more comfortable with the controls—he hadn't hit anything for at least a minute.
[Could] motor cars could be produced [in a country like Germany] and sold in competition in the American market. . . . In my opinion it is impossible to reach the conclusion that competition from without can ever be any factor whatsoever?
Imagine having "no chain of titles for cars, no VIN numbers, and no DMV. There'd be total chaos! But that's basically the system for debt.
I'm so excited I had a seven-car police motorcycle escort. I've had escorts before, but nothing like this. . . I'm really in awe, coming here and seeing so many cars, so much enthusiasm.
You can't stop everything from happening. But we've gotten to a point where we're certainly trying. If a car doesn't have four hundred air bags in it, then it's no good.
I think I'm a very good driver. Apparently, the cause of road rage - as with most anger - is some kind of superiority complex, which, god knows, cars foster.
I thought I told you to wait in the car.
Mooner was walking around laying his hands on the cars, divining karma. "this is it", he said, standing by a small khaki-colored jeep. "this car has protective qualities" You mean like a guardian angel?" I mean, like, it has seatbelts
Generally, cars were not built to sit on dealer lots. It encourages the wrong kind of behavior in the whole system.
Industrial tourism is a threat to the national parks. But the chief victims of the system are the motorized tourists. They are being robbed and robbing themselves. So long as they are unwilling to crawl out of their cars they will not discover the treasures of the national parks and will never escape the stress and turmoil of the urban-suburban complexes which they had hoped, presumably, to leave behind for a while.
The easiest and simplest thing that any one can do to make their car safer, more gas efficient, whatever - check the tire pressure.
What will use more finite resources? That 3rd or 4th child you have or driving a large car? We all need to think about the choices we make
When the money is not spent on cars and refrigerators and is instead dropped into a slot machine, it leaves the economy
I have the brain of a German Shepherd and the body of a 16-year-old boy; they’re both in my car and I want you to see them
When cars have the sensory systems around them, GPS intelligence, they're looking at the world not only in visual spectrum, but infrared, ultraviolet and everything else that's going on and they've got reaction times in microseconds. Not a tenth of a second. They're a hundred thousand times faster.
If I ever die, I want it to be cause I got hit by a car saving a kid.
