The private automobile(私家车)has long played an important role in the United States. In fact, it has become a necessary and important part of the American way of life. In 1986, sixty-nine per cent of American families owned at least one car, and thirty-eight per cent had more than one. By giving work?ers rapid transportation, the automobile has freed them from having to live near their places of work. This has encouraged the growth of the cities, but it has also led to traffic problems.
For farm families the automobile is very helpful. It has made it possible for them to travel to town very often for business and for pleasure 9 and also to transport their children to distant schools.
Family life has been affected in various ways. The car helps to keep fami?lies together when it is used for picnics, outings9 and other shared experi?ences. However, when teenage children have the use of the car， their parents can't keep an eye on them. There is great danger if the driver has been drink?ing alcohol or taking drugs, or showing off by speeding or breaking down traf?fic laws. Mothers of victims (受害者)of such accidents have formed an organ?ization called MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving). These women want to prevent further tragedies (悲剧)，They have worked to encourage the gov?ernment to limit the youngest drinking age. Students have formed a similar or?ganization 9 SADD (Students Against Drunk Driving) and are spreading the same message among their friends.
For many Americans the automobile is a necessity. But for some, it is also a mark of social position and for young people, a sign of becoming an adult. Al?together, cars mean very much to Americans.
