pray for traction I can keep, but if
I spin and begin to slide, please
dear God protect my sweet ride.
Amen.

Italian Engineering
Italy has a decent economy that relies heavily on
tourism, machinery, textiles, and motor vehicles. Its chief
trade partners are actually Germany and Great Britain.
Italy is perceived as a stable country even though it
actually depends on an underground economy known
as the Mafia/Camorra. Their activities function outside
of government control and actually financially support
southern Italy.

The Venom GT simply expresses the supercar that I

have always dreamed of building for myself. I
wanted a nimble, lightweight, mid-engine chassis with
a powerful American V-8 engine. Maximum powerto-weight ratio is critical for a performance vehicle,
and it is the cornerstone to our car. The goal? The
best overall performing and best looking road-legal

Italy

On three-lane roads, the middle lane is reserved for passing., which must always be signaled in
advance with the directional signal, which must be kept on while passing. In towns or city traffic on
roads with three lanes or with three or more lanes in each direction, cars are allowed to move in
parallel rows.

Drivers may use mobile phones only if the phones are equipped with an earpiece.

Driving Law Fun Facts

In Vietnam, moto-bikes are very common. It is not unlikely to see a family of five squeezed onto one bike. Needless to say, seat belt laws are not as strictly enforced in
Vietnam as they are in the United States.
Iverson, Kari. "Driving Rules in Different Countries." KXLY, 14 Sept. 2012. Web. 23 Mar. 2015.
Then of course, if you happened to meet a friend on the road, you could more easily offer your right hand in greeting without needing to reach across your body when on
horseback.
Hiskey, Daven. "Why Some Countries Drive on the Right and Some Countries Drive on the

Left." Today I Found Out RSS. TIFO Feed Your Brain, 24 June 2010. Web. 23 Mar. 2015.

Manual vehicles normally get better gas mileage
Manual vehicles typically have a higher longevity
