Car of Today


The Incredible Power Of The Subconscious Mind: Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve. ~Napolean Hill


According to legend, a Chinese mandarin, fascinated by the grace and speed of a flower head that the wind was rolling along the road, had the bright idea that led him to invent the wheel. It is only a legend, however, because, unlike many other things, the wheel was not a Chinese invention. All the experts agree that it was invented by the Sumerians in Mesopotamia, during the fourth millenium before the birth of Christ and that it then spread to the rest of the ancient world. The wheel probably reached China from Persia; a little later, it spread through Egypt and from there through the Cretan civilization to Greece and the rest of Europe.


Compare this with a car. The most important source of power on the roads today is the petrol engine, which propels the cars and motorcycles.

Necessity is the mother of invention. Ancient people are such intelligent people. People had found cave paintings which were done by these ancient people. With great thoughts like that, tools and machines were made; and through civilization, we have such advance technology that we are able to travel around the world with ease as well as communicate with each other conveniently.

The motor car of today bears little resemblance to the bone-shaking 'horseless carriage' found on the roads during the early centuries. Cars today are sleek-looking with a smooth and streamlined, or aderodynamic shape. With good body streamlining, less engine power is wasted in overcoming air resistance or drag. Car designers had done such a great job! The cars of today are so much bigger and inside the car, you can hardly hear the engine sound. Cars of today are so much quieter than the past. Inside the car, you can even listen to your favourite music, and your passengers can have a joyful ride watching DVD in the car!

Most importantly, car manufacturers are always designing cars to be as safe as possible and carry out crash tests to see if they can improve body design. During the early century, there were very few power-driven vehicles on the roads, apart from a few steam carriages. These were noisy, dirty and because of their boiler, liable to explode! They were considered so dangerous that in Britain a man had to walk in front of them carrying a red flag.

The modern car is highly sophisticated machine, made up of as many as 14000 different parts. Every year new models are introduced which offer some improvement on the previous ones.

Photograph taken on 16 May 2011, Singapore (Boon Lay Place) -- It shows a place which my father used to park his car while my mother and I went to the wet market. The place (this car park area around the garbage place) is still the same (after 33 years). The cars on the road today are bigger and more stylish than the before (especially compared with the early 70s automobiles).
