Quotes Promoting Road Manners

Posted by admin on July 22nd, 2011

If you are looking forward to promote road safety and manners, this compilation of motivational quotes would surely help you in more than just a way.

Quotes Promoting Road MannersOn the other hand, the Bible contains much that is relevant today, like Noah taking 40 days to find a place to park. -Curtis McDougall

The automobile has not merely taken over the street, it has dissolved the living tissue of the city.  Its appetite for space is absolutely insatiable; moving and parked, it devours urban land, leaving the buildings as mere islands of habitable space in a sea of dangerous and ugly traffic. -James Marston Fitch, New York Times, 1 May 1960

Remember folks, street lights timed for 35 mph are also timed for 70 mph. -Jim Samuels

I’m not sure… about automobiles…. With all their speed forward they may be a step backward in civilization – that is, in spiritual civilization.  It may be that they will not add to the beauty of the world, nor to the life of men’s souls.  I am not sure.  But automobiles have come, and they bring a greater change in our life than most of us suspect.  They are here, and almost all outward things are going to be different because of what they bring.  They are going to alter war, and they are going to alter peace.  I think men’s minds are going to be changed in subtle ways because of automobiles; just how, though, I could hardly guess.  But you can’t have the immense outward changes that they will cause without some inward ones, and it may be that… the spiritual alteration will be bad for us.  Perhaps, ten or twenty years from now, if we can see the inward change in men by that time, I shouldn’t be able to defend the gasoline engine, but would have to agree… that automobiles ‘had no business to be invented.’ -Eugene, from Booth Tarkington’s The Magnificent Ambersons, 1918

Taylor.uring the same period, NOMA is also organizing another exhibition titled “Modernist Photographs of Tagore’s Santiniketan and the Indian Subcontinent from 1929″.
