<span>Cars became a necessity, and there were thousands of them. People moved from the cities into the suburbs. Fathers needed cars to go to work and to take the family out on Sundays. Women needed the cars to take their kids to extracurricular activities and to go to the market. Families could visit relatives and friends or take a vacation. McDonald’s became the first chain drive-in restaurant. The Eisenhower administration enacted the Interstate Highway Act which offered 40,000 miles of roads built throughout the United States.
Cars literally changed the whole country from an economic, physical and demographic standpoint. hope this helps!:)</span><span> </span>
