Which is the fastest vehicle, car or aeroplane?

Is it even a question?! Of course a plane’s faster than a car! I mean, duh. Think about it – how long would it take to drive from, say, New York to London? You can’t even drive across an ocean! A plane can do that trip in, what, seven, eight hours? A car? Well, let’s just say you’d be swimming… and not in a good way.

I remember this one time, I was driving from Chicago to my sister’s place in Ohio. It was only like, six hours, but it felt like FOREVER. My back was killing me, the kids were fighting in the backseat… Ugh. I swear, it felt like the longest six hours of my life. Now imagine trying to do that for, like, days on end. No thanks! I’ll take a plane any day for those long hauls. Even with the airport hassle, it’s still way faster.

Sure, a car’s more convenient for popping down to the store or whatever. You can’t exactly land a 747 in the supermarket parking lot, can you? (Though that would be cool…) But for sheer speed, a plane wins hands down. I saw somewhere that some commercial jets can get close to like 600 mph! Try getting that speed out of your minivan!
