even more

by josh

CARS! So, strangely enough I've been doing a decent amount of car illustrations these days....heres a small illlustration that the New York Times Magazine commissioned from me. The story was about NASCAR safety regulations. Since Dale Earnhardt passesd away a few years ago, new safety regulations have been in place. Resulting in zero deaths and just as many crashes. The story goes on to compare driving on the freeway as having a lot more fatalities in the same amount of time. Something like 40,000 Americans dying in traffic each year. Which is totally crazy considering the fact that I live in THE commuter city. Anyways I decided to go for a little less hardcore approach to this assignment and thought about, "what would happen if we all wore the safety features that NASCAR drivers had to wear?"

hey!

is that you as a kid with your mom in the front car? I like the kid's expression, never noticed it before but he looks like there's some emotional stuff going on.

you should probably get some sleep though.
