interesting facts about cars

Ah, cars—a never-ending source of mechanical marvels and motoring madness. Did you know the average car contains over 30,000 parts? Or that the first speeding ticket was issued way back in 1902 at a blistering 45 km/h? Electric vehicles are hardly new either; they date back to the late 19th century, but only recently have they stormed the Aussie roads. The world's fastest car? It can scream past 480 km/h, which is frankly terrifying on a highway. And if you think your fuel bills are bad, the infamous Hummer H2 guzzles about 30 litres per 100 km.
