A Quote From Roadsworth

"Protected in a bubble of steel and glass and immunized against the harshness of the exterior world in a comfort zone of plush interior and climate-controlled environment, the driver looks out at the outside world to the beat of his favorite driving music, experiencing space as one would experience cable television while channel surfing, detachedly registering the news and other images that register on the windshield only to disappear and be replaced by others. Effortlessly, distance is spanned, and the world becomes a virtual reality."
