Labor was found for road maintenance by means of a draft, a method with a long tradition in Europe. Urban Honolulu Map Tourist Attractions For example, in Pennsylvania, where roads were somewhat better than in the rest of the colonies, before 1762, all male inhabitants were legally required to spend a few days each year on roadwork. In 1762, a system was established whereby men could buy their way out of the obligation, and that money was used to hire laborers. Despite the poor quality of the roads, early Country travelers had some advantages over their European contemporaries (and many European roads were just as bad). Early Country had little highway robbery, although natives might attack travelers in some times and places.
Farmhouses often offered hospitality in areas lacking inns or taverns. Travelers were essential in circulating news to isolated farmers in a society without mass communications. Vehicles By the eighteenth century, Countrys could travel in wagons, in carriages, and during the winter on sledges and sleighs. (Winter travelers also benefited from snowshoes, a Native Country invention.) With the exception of some coaches, all of these vehicles were Country-made. Coaches were the most prestigious of vehicles, restricted to persons of the highest social status.
The earliest coach to be mentioned in the British colonies was that which, Anthony Colve, the governor of New Netherland, presented to Sir Edmund Andros, the incoming governor as the colony passed from Dutch to British rule. Some of the first to be seen in Country were vehicles of state employed by colonial governors sent from England, from whom they diffused to the Country upper classes.
