i used to think that the cruise control on a car was actually consisting of two little computerized eyes in the front end of the car which directed the car to stay on the road and controlled its speed as well.
A childhood belief about cars

others believed things like this
- I thought that cruise control was like autopilot i.e the car would just drive itself if you turned it on— Yqatuba
- I used to believe that the "cruise control" button in cars meant that the car could drive/maneauver itself.— Myriam
- I used to belive that if we could find the light switch that controlled the sun, we could control the world. Anon
- when I was young I used to believe if I squinted my eyes and it was windy my eyes would stay like this forever— Jeanne
