well friction is almost the essential component in a car. You have friction everywhere. You have friction in your engine, your brakes, your transmission, and on your tires. Friction helps you move and stop. Most cars today waste the energy made from friction but some hybrids use all of these frictions to charge their battery to start the car over and over again, or help it down the road.

When is friction not so useful?
When you drive a car and stop it is because of friction you stopped. If there was no friction your car won't stop and will slide. Friction also helps with waking, if there was no friction with every step you take you would slip. Friction lets your foot stay in one spot while you move the other foot. Ice has no friction so it is hard to walk on and hard to brake on (if driving a car.)
