Here's an interesting fact about early automobiles and their creators: Henry Ford, the founder of Ford Motor Company, revolutionized not only automotive manufacturing but also labor practices. In 1914, he introduced the 8-hour workday and doubled his workers' wages to $5 per day, significantly improving their living standards and setting a precedent for industrial labor practices. This move was alongside his pioneering efforts in mass-producing the affordable Ford Model T, which became the first car accessible to the general public.
