Lambart lost control of the car after colliding with a tree root and a hitching post. Because the car lacked the ability to speed, there were no serious injuries. Since then our society has leaped through technological and infrastructural advancement like never before. Which has led to a rapid boom in the transportation and travel aspect of life.
