And no side/rear view mirrors. Horse carriages and horseless carriages making "lane changes" without looking back. Pedestrians not looking both ways. Then there was an automobile with two men in front and three in the back that kept showing up in the film like schoolboys having fun. There was just a few instances of somebody needing to two-step it out of the way.

But otherwise kind of slow paced with some music you don't hear every day. I can imagine my great grandfather watching some fellows tooling around in an automobile without a care and possibly wishing that he had something like that in China when they were marching in blistering heat. Had to be something coming of age in that period. He eventually settled back in central Wisconsin as a mail carrier.
