ref: 2011, Peter D. Norton, Fighting Traffic: The Dawn of the Motor Age in the American City, MIT Press, →ISBN, page 174:
text: In cities large and small, urban mobility above all meant streetcars and walking. Reconstruction coincided with industry's efforts to change the norms of street use, laws, and engineering standards so that cities would welcome automobiles. In response, diverse automotive interest groups, including manufacturers, dealers, and automobile clubs, recognizing common threats and shared interests, organized a collective effort. Among themselves and in the press, the coalition was sometimes known as motordom. Motordom told versions of history that celebrated progress in transportation while redefining it as the ever-expanding reach of cars and motor roads. The technique of history telling was an important but generally unappreciated development in the new field of public relations and the new enterprise of the full-service advertising agency.
