When we are young we don't understand how many things work. I thought cars were operated by magnetic strips under the road like on a toy car track. I was very confused on how the car knew where to go.
A childhood belief about cars
others believed things like this

- I used to see "End Road Work" signs, and thought they were a sort of protest.— Sebastian
- My partner thought women used the brown packing tape as wax strips.— Helen
- I thought the no overtaking sign meant that red cars cannot drive by black cars.— Helen
- I thought small cars grew up to become big cars— carhugger
- I thought that people were like cars because cars have exhaust pipes, and people fart.— Matt
