How can transportation be used?

Okay, so, how can we use transportation? I mean, duh, right? We use it every single day! It's how we live. Think about it... how would you get to work if you couldn't drive or take the bus? Or how would you get groceries without a car? My grandma, for example, lives miles away from anything – if she didn't have her little blue Toyota, she'd be totally stuck. It's how she gets to the doctor, sees her friends...everything!

It's not just personal stuff, either. Everything, and I mean everything, relies on getting transported somewhere. That avocado toast you had for breakfast? That avocado probably traveled thousands of miles to get to your grocery store. I saw a documentary once about how they ship flowers from South America all the way to Europe. It's insane! Trillions of dollars worth of goods, they said, and billions of people traveling every year. Makes you think about all those planes and ships crisscrossing the globe, doesn't it? It's like this giant, invisible web connecting everyone and everything. Kind of mind-blowing when you really stop to consider it.
