Cars

Traveling is an important part of our world today, we use cars to get to school in the morning. We use planes to get to places far from home, for emergencies or even just for a holiday.

The first car was invented in 1972 by a man called Nichols Cugnot. It was used by the french soldiers to move their cannons from one place to another. Although it was the first car ever made, it could only go 4mph. Due to this it wouldn’t be any use to an everyday person unless they had a lot of time on their hands.

People these days want to get to places that they need to go to, faster so that they won’t be late or just because their anxious. If there was an emergency and say something happened with your family and you needed to go fast, it would be a lot faster to put on your running shoes and run than drive a car that only goes 4 miles per hour maximum speed. What I am trying to say is there was a need for change.

  1. Traveling at 4 kmh it would take us 30 mins to get to school instead of 3 and you would be late every morning . Yes change was needed and im glad that they made changes. I learnt something from your writing i didn't know that the first car only travelled at 4kmh too slow . Good writing .
