Part 2/9:
As we delve into the historical footage from the 1910s to the 1920s, we observe a society that primarily relied on unpaved roads and basic automobiles. The cars of this era rarely exceeded speeds of 20 to 25 miles per hour, reflecting a time when cities were not designed with vehicles in mind. The traffic regulations were almost nonexistent, leading to unsafe conditions and a high rate of accidents.
The video highlights the primitive landscapes of major cities during this time, showing sporadic cars intermingling with horse-drawn carriages. The lack of infrastructure specifically tailored for automobiles indicated a society still in the early stages of embracing motor transportation.
