Richmond University, Va The rats were put in makeshift cars made from food containers and rewarded with Froot Loops if they completed the course. The steering mechanism seems attached to the neck! |

This certainly explains traffic on Central Expressway.

There's a nice write on a website on cars: https://jalopnik.com/they-taught-rats-how-to-drive-1839263963 The video shows a rat climbing into a wheeled plastic container and then it touches one of three wires to navigate the little vehicle towards a piece of Froot Loops cereal. Is it safe to be the joining connection in an electrical circuit? I guess for a lab rat that sort of comes with the territory. Imagine if our bodies were the keys to our cars. Anyway: The story closes with: . If you think back to the first time you were allowed to drive a car, all of those sensations you now share with a lab rat just trying to eat a Froot Loop. That’s beautiful. Aren’t we all just rats trying to get to our next Froot Loop? The videos show one rat, on one car placed on the driving board. It will be interesting to find how two rats race to the fruit loop. Incidentally, Dr. Kelly Lambert's husband Gary is an industrial psychologist who specializes in Reduce Risk When Operating Vehicles... |

Great, now we are soon going to have rats driving around in little cars honking their horns at women on street corners.
