The automobile is known worldwide as the vehicle for trips, deliveries, competitions, and racing. This week will display the hand signs related to the four-wheeled Horseless Carriage.
My ASL Dictionary’s updated cartoon of a Deaf Racecar Driver in a fancy long-sleeved racing suit and goggles showing the ASL hand sign for CAR and AUTOMOBILE.
While creating this 2013 illustration, I learned about the prejudice and discrimination against Deaf drivers. As the Deaf are more than capable of safe driving (Hearing Drivers are often distracted by sound), I added a Deaf Sticker behind my race car driver.
Facing each other, the S hands arc up and down, like a driver’s hands on the steering wheel.
