What were some of the key challenges faced by early automobile drivers, and how did they overcome them?

Early automobile drivers faced several challenges, including poor road conditions, limited vehicle range, and lack of fueling stations. They overcame these challenges by carrying extra fuel and spare parts, often traveling in convoys for support. Drivers also became adept at performing roadside repairs and modifications to improve their vehicles’ reliability. Additionally, the establishment of early motoring clubs helped by providing information, support, and advocating for better infrastructure.
