When we were little my dad told us that cars had switches to control the lights in the middle of the road. He used to toggle his headlights and the cats eyes "turned" on and off. We thought it was great as it saved power.
A childhood belief about cars
others believed things like this
- I used to believe that cars were alive and their headlights were eyes.— Wiley
- I used to believe that the cats eyes in the road...reflectors...were the eyeballs from real cats.— Liza P.
- I used to believe that cats eyes were lit up by a man running under the road with a torch— Martin
- I thought that cruise control was like autopilot i.e the car would just drive itself if you turned it on— Yqatuba
