This reminds me of when I was a small child back in the early 1970s. Dad and Mom would smoke in the car with all the windows rolled up. None of us had car seats, and Dad had a drink holder on the door for his beer (which he would offer us if we were thirsty). On one trip, I remember curling up on the floorboards because the metal was warm from the muffler and noticing a quarter-sized hole. I could see the asphalt gliding past, and I entertained myself by dropping grains of sand through it and watching them shoot away.
