These days taking a road trip of several hundred miles is no big deal. Simply hit the nearest Interstate highway and you’re on your way.

But back in the early days of automobile travel things weren’t so simple. There were no Interstates connecting distant cities and towns and there were no exits lined with gas stations and fast food restaurants every few miles.

Back in the day, embarking on a long road trip wasn’t for the faint of heart. Today we take motor travel for granted but the folks who decided to hit the road way back when sure didn’t. 

I was fascinated by this short video that shows what it was like to drive from Indiana to Florida (and back) in 1931. You might be as well. Check it out…
