Abstract
Automotive developments have played a major positive role in the civilization of the 20th century. Two important elements of a successful and expanding economy are transportation and industrialization. In this regard, the automobile has. on balance, provided man with infinitely more advantages than disadvantages. With the help of automotive technology, for example, a man can plow over 100 acres in an eight-hour day. With a team of oxen, that same man in the same amount of time could plow less than an acre.
