Is an automobile company ethically obligated to make a totally safe car? Should we require a manufacturer to improve the safety of its cars if doing so will make them too expensive for many drivers?

Finally I will finish off the paper by concluding with a summary of each topic followed by two charts showing the positives and negatives of each vehicle and the benefits it has for families, divorcees, and finally the single and married population.

He said that interpersonal communication was very simple because he described it like learning to drive a car. ‘’ When you drive a car you have to change your behaviour depending on what is happening on the road’’ which Argyle stated.
Creative thinking benefits by enticing thinking out of the box. Creative thinkers enhance morale, group or team performance, and encourage collaboration.

Zipcar Business Model Sharon R. Jones Grantham University Dr. William Reed- Instructor HPI 633 Knowledge, Learn and Enterprise System 13 August 2013 How might you apply Porter’s five force model to Zipcar business model?

The Efficiency of Cars Nikeisha S. Sandy SCI207: Dependence of Man on the Environment (ABL1146J) Instructor: Walter Lambert December 12, 2011 The efficiency of cars is a major issue. There are several reasons why cars should be more efficient, however, there are many reasons why they should not. The efficiency of a car can affect both the economy and the atmosphere.

At one point, the idea of using a car that was electric powered may have seemed outrageous.

Ford steadily lost market share to GM and Chrysler, as these and other domestic and foreign competitors began offering fresher automobiles with more innovative features and luxury options. GM had a range of models from relatively cheap to luxury, tapping all price points in the spectrum, while less wealthy people purchased used Model Ts. The competitors also opened up new markets by extending credit for purchases, so consumers could buy these expensive automobiles with monthly payments. Ford initially resisted this approach, insisting such debts would ultimately hurt the consumer and the general economy. Ford eventually relented and started offering the same terms in December 1927,when Ford unveiled the redesigned Model A, and retired the Model T after producing15 million units.
