Lesson: Order from Chaos
‘The Wind in the Willows’ is a classic British Children’s book familiar to hundreds of millions worldwide. If you have yet to read it, I strongly suggest you put it on your bucket list. While the driving antics of Mr. Toad are entertaining, they are based on real life. When motorcars first came into being, there were no traffic rules. Only the very rich could afford vehicles, and they drove them like they owned the roads. Naturally, this caused chaos and disruption in the streets wherever vehicles encountered pedestrians or vice versa. Let’s discuss how the car became king of the road.
