Motorcycle Safety Education is offered throughout the United States by organisations


ranging from state agencies to non-profit organisations to corporations. The courses,
designed by the Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF), include a Basic Rider Course, an
Intermediate Rider Course and an Advanced Rider Course.
In the UK (except Northern Ireland) and some Australian jurisdictions, such as Victoria,
New South Wales, it is compulsory to undertake a rider training course before being
issued a Learners Licence.

Atlas Car Transport CAR SHIPPING : History


Main article: History of transport
Bullock team hauling wool in Australia
Humans' first means of transport were walking and swimming. The domestication of
animals introduces a new way to lay the burden of transport on more powerful creatures,
allowing heavier loads to be hauled, or humans to ride the animals for higher speed and
duration. Inventions such as the wheel and sled helped make animal transport more
efficient through the introduction of vehicles. Also water transport, including rowed and
sailed vessels, dates back to time immemorial, and was the only efficient way to transport
large quantities or over large distances prior to the Industrial Revolution.

* Single gates on narrow canals (locks approx. 7 feet / 2.1 m wide)
o A few narrow locks imitate wide locks in having paired gates at both ends (e.g. Bosley,
on the Macclesfield Canal)
o On most English narrow canals however, the upper end of the chamber is closed by a
single gate the full width of the lock. This was cheaper to construct and is quicker to
operate, as only one gate needs to be opened.

Atlas Car Transport AUTO MOVERS :A train consists of one or more connected
vehicles that run on the rails. Propulsion is commonly provided by a locomotive, that
hauls a series of unpowered cars, that can carry passengers or freight. The locomotive can
be powered by steam, diesel or by electricity supplied by trackside systems.
Alternatively, some or all the cars can be powered, known as a multiple unit. Also, a train
can be powered by horses, cables, gravity, pneumatics and gas turbines. Railed vehicles
move with much less friction than rubber tires on paved roads, making trains more
energy efficient, though not as efficient as ships.

Atlas Car Transport Vechicle SHIPPERS * Standard — the rider sits upright or leans
forwards slightly. The feet are below the rider, not too far to the front or back. These are
straightforward, versatile motorcycles that are not too specialized for one task, but don't
excel in one area either. The rider enjoys the benefits of freedom of head movement,
good visibility in all directions, and easier use of the feet while moving through
stationary traffic.
* Cruiser — the rider sits at a lower seat height with the upper torso upright or leaning
slightly rearwards. Legs are extended forwards, sometimes out of reach of the regular
controls on cruiser pegs. The low seat heights can be a consideration for new or short
riders. Handlebars tend to be high, and wide. Harley-Davidsons are exemplars of this
style.

Atlas Car Transport AUTO MOVERS Since the 1920s, nearly all cars have been mass-
produced to meet market needs, so marketing plans often have heavily influenced
automobile design. It was Alfred P. Sloan who established the idea of different makes of
cars produced by one company, so buyers could "move up" as their fortunes improved.
Reflecting the rapid pace of change, makes shared parts with one another so larger
production volume resulted in lower costs for each price range. For example, in the
1930s, LaSalles, sold by Cadillac, used cheaper mechanical parts made by Oldsmobile; in
the 1950s, Chevrolet shared hood, doors, roof, and windows with Pontiac; by the 1990s,
corporate drivetrains and shared platforms (with interchangeable brakes, suspension, and
other parts) were common. Even so, only major makers could afford high costs, and even
companies with decades of production, such as Apperson, Cole, Dorris, Haynes, or
Premier, could not manage: of some two hundred American car makers in existence in
1920, only 43 survived in 1930, and with the Great Depression, by 1940, only 17 of those
were left.
