9. Use a paragraph to summarize why cars have become so important in our lives today.
Vehicles have become very important in our day-to-day lives. As new transportation has become available, people have been able to spread out across the entire world, not just in small towns here and there. It is now possible to develop big cities in which everything isn't within walking distance. People can live hours away from eachother and still see eachother often. Transportation has actually become an important part of our communication. All this was made possible by the vehicle.
