the automobile has many advantages. above all, it offers


people freedom to go wherever and whenever they want to go.

the basic purpose of a motor vehicle is to get from point a to



point b as cheaply, quickly, and safely as possible. however, to

most

much
of
the world

is built
on

producing motor vehicles and supplying roads, services,
repairs for those vehicles. half of the
