very few people had cars, so many had to hitchhike or 'Ride the Roads'.
Riding the roads was where people went from train to train to travel. This was the main way of transportation. Many children and teens used this method, as well as men. There were also whole families.
Riding the roads was extremely dangerous as if you did not hop into the cart at the right moment you could hurt yourself, or kill yourself.
There were cars. People with stable incomes (namely people who owned companies or profiters of war) would be able to buy them. Cars started to be produced in mass (before the Great Depression started during the 'crazy years' when people had money), and therefore, the price of cars greatly descended. When people had their cars during the Great Depression, often people wouldn't have any money for fuel for their cars, so they would take the engine out and use horses or buffalos to pull their cars. They called them 'Bennet Buggies' after their Prime Minister at the time (R.B. Bennett) whose solutions during the Great Depression would never work.
