Impacts on the economy
Stimulated the use of credit Motels Drive in places (movies, restaurants,
banks, convenience stores, etc) Automobile exports vital to
international trade 1/5th of U.S. steel used for cars 3/5th of rubber used for tires

Environmental impact
Contributes to global warming (CO2) Ozones breaking down Acid rains Summers more hot because asphalt
roads absorbs sunlight Cutting down more nature Causing air pollution (80% from
automobiles in urban areas)

Conclusion
Made life more mobile Far distance Trying to make drivers safe Faster cars Trying to make it safer Continue to Develop (design &
efficiency)
