The distribution of mail by car

Montenegro was the first state in Europe which introduced postal services distributed with state car. The service started working on July 6, 1903. This car was purchased in Paris, produced by the firm "Delahaye". It was ten seater, hard rubber tires and motor with 16 horsepower. It was able to reach speeds up to 15 kilometers per hour. Locals at that time called the car "Karoča (carriage) without horses which screams on the road" and "miracle of iron". It took 5 hours and 45 minutes to drive from Cetinje to Nikšić.
