Imagine living in a universe where, without even trying, you can run so fast that if you trip, you will die and splatter your body over a couple hundred meters of ground. And if you trip into someone, it’ll kill them and possibly an entire pile of people.

Like, in motor racing, the cars get wrecked but the drivers are fine. In the movie Cars, they all die. The race spectators are watching a blood sport.

    I wonder about this though because cars are “fragile” due to being designed to protect the humans inside. I would think that the sentient cars would have evolved differently to be more protective of themselves.

      Again, I’m not trying to make the world of cars more realistic. I don’t care that they would have evolved differently, that’s not something from the movie. I’m not interested in imagining how the movie could have been different.

      Cars is a movie where cars are people
      We are people
      Cars exist in our world
      Imagine that’s what we were.
