| Driver's Education and Safety People need to be mobile..throughout human history, people have moved from one place to another. Early civilizations walked primarily or used animals to ride on. Roads were built for the people to travel. As technology increased, the amount of cars on the road increased as well. Today in the U.S. , with interstate highways, people can move faster in cars than ever before. Along with this, the number of driver's has also increased.
