Andrew Sinclair
“The armour-plated cars with windows of bullet-proof glass, the murders implicit in Hymie Weiss [1889-1926] phrase 'to take for a ride', the sedans of tommy-gunners spraying the streets of gangland, all created a satanic mythology of the automobile which bid fair to rival the demonism of the saloon. The car was an instrument of death in the hands of the crook and the drunk, and prohibition was held to have spawned both of them.”
Andrew Sinclair, Prohibition: The Era of Excess
