sniffed for the perfect spot, my mind was free of thoughts, or so I thought. When she finished with her morning ritual, I took her into the house, gave her a pat on the head, and grabbed my running shoes. My mind was still empty as I walked to my car, hit the automatic unlock button, and put the key in the ignition. I turned the key one click and the electric system forced the radio to blast into my ears. Simultaneously, thoughts I wasn’t aware were there came to the surface as I listened to Cutting

wall, a police siren blurted. They sprinted into different directions, but Author Wes ran toward the blue/white police cruiser and the “officers took seconds to hand cuff him and throw him to the cruiser” (Moore 81). He was scared and afraid of his immediate fate. As Author Wes loudly attempted to overrule the officer by apologizing, the officers released both Author Wes and Shea at the end, and told them to go home.

Screams of Thelma and Louise are heard when they are blinded by a blast of sand dust while driving. Then we could see the car almost hanging on by a thread on the edge of what appears to be the beautiful ‘Grand Canyon’. “Isn’t it beautiful” The foreshadowing of this moment develop an even more unexpected ending because as the audience look at the canyon they don't expect Thelma
A major factor that influences how patrol officers fulfill their responsibilities is the method of patrol they use. There are several methods of patrol used throughout the many police departments in the country. The most commonly used methods of patrol are the combination of foot patrol and automobile patrol. Foot patrol is the oldest form of patrol and consists of officers walking a beat and responding to incidents of foot. At one point, foot patrol became less popular and then re-emerged as
successful developer, I prefered to live modestly. My house, my car, and my belongings were not particularly flashy. But I liked it that way. I got behind the wheel of my pre-owned sedan, switched on my wipers against the rain, and began the drive home. Once I reached the downtown streets, I shifted into the middle lane and kept up with traffic. Suddenly, I heard sirens. I glanced into my rear view mirror on instinct. There was a police car with its lights on directly behind me. I checked my speedometer
One could most certainly characterize the police vehicle as a character- after all, despite its not having a driver in the vehicle itself, there would most certainly be someone back at headquarters controlling the machine. Mead’s discovery by the vehicle is thought by Mead to be “a rare, incredible thing… the force had been cut down from three cars to one... there was no need now for the police”. This last is yet another source of bitterness; although the area in which
Parked Cars Can Be Death Traps for Kids Imagine sitting in a hospital waiting room anticipating the results of the tests being run on your only child. You were lucky though; at least he is alive. You had no idea that he was in your car. You can not imagine how traumatic it could have been for him to be trapped in his own car. Finally the doctors come to tell you the news. He has brain damage, and he will never fully recover. He may never walk again and he will never live the life of a normal
As technology increases, these automobiles are safer, handle better, and go faster than ever before. The police therefore are forced into pursuit with their own automobiles, endangering the lives of officers and civilians. So the question becomes, how can pursuits be avoided and then when they do occur, how can they be shortened? It is important to understand the root causes behind why police pursuit and high speed chases are such
students, we hadn’t counted on getting in as much trouble as we did for a nights worth of fun. It all started when David said, “Bobby, lets go pick up my girlfriend, Justine. My mom should be sleeping now. We can sneak out the garage door, put the car in neutral and quietly roll it down the driveway. After that, we can push it down the street and start it so my mom won’t hear.” “All right. Can I drive?” I asked. “ Sure,” he said. “Yeahhhhhh! This is so awesome,” I shouted as we cruised down
The police car stopped at the bottom of the driveway, in the back was a teenage girl, still too young to understand the world around her. Her mother slowly opened the door. A look of worry turned to anger. The girl watched as her mother marched out to greet the police officers. The officers talked and talked to the mother. The look of anger turned to compassion, tears. The girl didn't even move, she wasn't thinking about her mum, nor the two police officers, not even the fact that she was in the
Symbolism of Houses and Cars in The Great Gatsby Francis Scott Fitzgerald's novel, The Great Gatsby, is full of symbolism, which is portrayed by the houses and cars in an array of ways. One of the more important qualities of symbolism within The Great Gatsby is the way in which it is so completely incorporated into the plot and structure. Symbols, such as Gatsby's house and car, symbolize material wealth. Gatsby's house "[is] a factual imitation of some Hotel de Ville in Normandy" which
Car Statistics Coursework I am trying to work out what factor makes a car decrease in value the most. I have chosen a large sample of cars which have had a service history and erased some of the factors that I think I will not need. The factors I am not using are make and model, colour, engine size, fuel, MOT, tax, insurance, doors, style, seats, air conditioning, gearbox and airbags. I have also got rid of the cars that do not have all of the sufficient information. I am using how
“That is going to be my car one day”. Stickers are the main characters in import car shows. You can always get stickers of anything and about anything if your car is great, as any import car owner hopes it to be. To have millions of people admire your car as much as you do, your car will need to be unique by using manufacture logos. The manufacture owner then gives you their logos, turbo chargers, leather seats, exhaust systems, and so on. It is obvious that import cars are more for looks then speed
will be very fair-priced so that every person will be able to afford one of these luxurious, technological advances; not just the wealthier part of society will be affected. Every person will be transformed. Families will be able to travel in a family car and they will be financially able to purchase one of the greatest fabrications of all time. The middle class man will be able to enjoy one of life’s luxuries that only the rich in the past have been able to relish in. I am telling you, first hand, that
anymore. For the last generations, we take everything for granted. We are surrounded by technology and we don’t even give a thought how everything was created. Some things that have changed our world of technology during the last century are: telegraphs, cars, and television. We consider all this things a form of entertainment or even a necessity; when before they didn’t exist and people lived perfectly fine without them. The non-electric telegraph was invented in
A World Without Cars James Q. Wilson the author of the article "Cars and Their Enemies" briefly ponders the possibility of our world without personal automobiles. He speculates whether our current society would welcome the invention of the personal automobile into a fictitious world without cars. Wilson immediately answers no.

Disney Pixar’s film Cars (John Lasseter, Joe Ranft, 2006) plays with both stereotypes and architypes. Though, this film has no humans it instills human ideals of gender, love, race, and even class into these characters. Lasseter and Ranft specifically make use of stereotyping and archetypes to bring these characters to life. Not only does the use of archetypes provide a personality within each of these characters but the stereotypes also connote negative traits as well. Cars centers on Lightning
