Car (obstacle)

Cars are a recurring traffic obstacle in the . They first appear in Mario Kart 64.
==Description==
Cars are the main component of traffic in courses taking place in a city, such as Toad's Turnpike, or courses with a busy road, such as Shroom Ridge. If a character drives their kart into a car, they spin out as if they had driven into a Banana. A car cannot be destroyed, but certain items can send them flying into the air, most commonly a Super Star or, as of Mario Kart DS, a Bullet Bill. The drivers are not visible in most cars, but sound of them make a honking sound upon being hit. Buses have a similar function to Cars.

===Mario Kart 64===
White-colored cars are featured as the main obstacles of Toad's Turnpike, along with buses. The cars make the same engine sound as Toad's kart.
===Mario Kart: Double Dash!!===
Cars are encountered as obstacles in Mushroom Bridge and Mushroom City. Here, the three standard types of cars found are red, yellow and blue, all of which have "POW" as a license plate, and the only difference between all of them is their color. There are also the more hazardous Bomb-cars, and driving into one sends the racer flying upward in an explosion, just as if they were caught in the blast radius of an exploding Bob-omb item. Cars also have a unique variation, Mushroom Cars, which can drop a Mushroom onto the course upon being bumped into but do not spin out the racer, making them the only helpful obstacle in traffic.
===Mario Kart DS===
Cars prominently appear throughout Shroom Ridge and the returning . The same red, yellow and blue cars from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! make an appearance, although does not retain the Mushroom Cars and Bob-omb Cars.
A red car is the focus of Mission 4-3, in which Mario has to race one on Shroom Ridge. The red car moves a lot faster than the other cars.
