Cars

So I was driving my 53 mile drive to work this morning, and a thought came to me as it often does while I'm in drive time traffic; cars are weird. We humans have figured out how to make little self-contained hard bubbles that move fast. And it's amazing how we humans seem to be pre-disposed to make these things go without much incident. So we move around in these little bubbles at high speeds and very rarely crash. Isn't it a weird concept to think about?

Or how we drive so fast in our little lane but take away the lane markers and we all lose our heads (like when they are doing road resufacing). Why do those little white and yellow dashed lines make us stay in our lane? Without even really thinking about it?
