This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

A person doesn’t need to know how cars work to drive one. They ought to know, but it’s not technically required.

They ought to know

I'd question even that. Hardly any user knows how their phone works, so why would cars be any different? You probably should know basic maintenance but most cars tell you what they need anyway.

Understanding physics issues like momentum, traction, and the way a car turns is important to not crashing. Otherwise you get people making poor decisions on ice.
