It’s hard to believe that the iconic Michelin Man, among the most well-known brand logos in the world, has actually been around for 120 years! The always-happy pudgy guy has been the lifetime brand ambassador for tyre-maker Michelin, but how exactly did he come about? Well, it was quite simple really.
When you get your driving licence, you are capable of piloting a car, but what they don’t teach you is how to capably pilot a car in the real world, where there isn’t a guy in the passenger seat ready with his foot on a secondary brake-pedal. All drivers eventually learn to adapt to their surroundings on different roads and conditions, but many somehow fail to figure out the obvious or are intentionally oblivious. Knowing defensive-driving techniques can prevent you from becoming the latter, and to avoid those drivers without incident as well.
