There may be one car visible. Yet we have street lights, proper kerbs and gutters. For 1905 I find that amazing. I just checked and in 1900 there were reckoned to be 700-800 cars n Britain. So lets assume a doubling each year. By 1905 we can guess there may have been 50,000. A million was not reached until1932.
