What has the invention of vehicles done for our society?

Negative Impacts

The amount of lives lost due to absent minded drivers. roughly 36,096 deaths occurred in the USA in 2019.

The destruction of multiple Environments to construct highways and roads for the growing demand for travel via car.

The emissions from cars have been shown to damage out Ozone layer. this is a big contributor to global warming. Here is where our Moral judgment is tested, on one hand its become a norm to travel by car but on the other we need to change those habits to slow down the rate of greenhouse gasses being emitted.

The impect on an average persons life

The commute to work was a lot easier so people were able to live further away and still work the same job. this aided in the ability for the suburbs to grow

In the 1920's when cars were at a huge spike in popularity it lead to the changes of many family dynamics. not having the independence to come and go as you please no longer needing to be stuck at home

Now with the freedom to travel anywhere and anytime you want people learned to have a sense of independence

Modernization of factories, laws, and use of assembly lines

The invention of an assembly line allowed for the automation of many objects we use today like smart phones, clothing, and even processed drinks/food

laws and regulation for driving were put in place to protect the general public. like regulations behind driving under the influence of different substances

With the invention of Vehicles new laws were put in place to regulate them like the creation of Drivers Licenses

Aviation

With the development of Aviation it helped grow many new industries and abilities like:

Connection with family and friends who live far away

The ability to explore new cultures

moving currency around allowing for economic growth

Tourism

After the conquering of fast land travel we took to the skies removing so many more limitations and saving time well traveling to far away lands

Using vehicles in agriculture

Plows to help till the land cutting the amount of time and labor it would normally need to tend to a field prepping it for planting crops

The use of tractors to help harvest crop yields saves a lot of time for the farmers as well as cuts back on labor cost

Women's rights movements

The the ability to quickly travel around Women could also start applying for jobs and getting out of the house to explore "cultural scenes"

The ability for women to safely and freely travel was the first major step in the movement for women's rights

With the invention of cars women had the ability to travel and gain some sort of freedom from the family

Modern Day

The invention of now fully electric and hybrid cars were made to help combat the issue cars caused in the first place which was the mass amounts of pollution caused by a majority of the population owning and using cars.

The significance of cars can be seen all through out our society with new innovative roads and technology to the ability to be with people who live hundreds if not thousands of kilometers away from each other.

The invention of self driving cars allow for safer travels minimizing vehicular accidents by at least 33% but as high as 90%

1960

By now every family had at least 1 car but during the 60's it was normalized for every individual who could drive owned a car reflected by the 25million registrations during those years. this is a clear showing of the perspective of our society changing for it to be a norm to own a car.

1920

The use of assembly lines are now main stream for the production of cars

The popularity of cars lead to the growth of the suburbs around this time as well as family dynamic changes

1908

The Ford Motor Company develops the Model T and the assembly line to produce them

1901

Engineer and business man Henry Ford improves on Mr.Benz's design

This Kicked off the snowball effect That cars would end up having on our developing world

1885

German technician Karl Benz creates the first rudimentary car
