Why the car is such a perfect safe space for big conversations
This image shows two women inside a car during a daytime drive. The driver, wearing an orange sweater, is focused on the road while operating the car's controls. The passenger, in a red jacket, sits relaxed with her hands folded in her lap. The car's interior features a modern dashboard with a digital display for navigation. The view through the windshield shows a quiet, suburban road lined with greenery under a clear sky. The scene captures a moment of travel, possibly engaging in a conversation, in a comfortably appointed vehicle.
