What car confessions would you provide if AutoMotive.com surveyed you for this infographic?
This chart surveyed 1,000 car owners about their car ownership experience and details. Most people get their first car at 16 according to this infographic. This age makes sense if you take into consideration that in most states you can obtain your learners permit. However, the second most popular age for getting your first car isn’t 17, but 15.
If you’ve given your car a name then your in the majority (61%), with names submitted like Cindy, Old Yeller and Son of a B*tch. A small minority of 17% said they were okay with passengers smoking in their car. This number will likely decrease as the dangers of second hand smoke become more widely known.
