The History of Caterpillar
Caterpillar began its historical journey in the late 19th century. Back in 1890, two owners of different companies were experimenting with the efficiency of using traction engines in agriculture. Benjamin Holt and Daniel Best were at the forefront of these advancements, eventually becoming the founders of the industry giant Caterpillar. At that time, their focus was on improving and pushing the boundaries of tractor capabilities. This marked the humble beginnings of a company that would revolutionize the agricultural and construction industries with innovative machinery.

An Idea to Secure Roads
Every driver knows that overtaking a big rig on a country road is one of the riskiest maneuvers, often leading to severe accidents. It can be tough to stay behind a massive truck for a long time, tempting you to hit the gas and pass it. However, visibility is usually poor, increasing the chance of colliding with an oncoming vehicle. Most truck drivers help passing cars by signaling when it's safe to overtake. But this cooperation doesn't always happen, resulting in more accidents on rural roads.
