just me Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Thanks for sharing. Noticed some 1906 White Steamers. Possibly used as a taxi service? Charley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 I notice that the cars of 1906 don't necessary adhere to specific traffic lanes, but weave anywhere they need to go. (I guess it was easier to do that at speeds of 10 or 15 miles an hour.) And with such low traffic speeds, people crossed the wide street not only at intersections, but wherever they happened to be!

caddyshack Posted December 5, 2017 Share Posted December 5, 2017 Great video. Wish I could recognize more of the autos. The early Cadillacs I could make out. Thanks for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
