Are shown activities of a training course for teachers of physics, which were developed from the use of a car as a teaching resource. The course consisted of a proposal of cooperative work in which the activities included actual measurements both with the vehicle at rest and in motion in different situations. It is proposed as an example that allows contextualize physics, record data and the subsequent use of physical models. On the other hand, the proposed activities have required the discussion on the necessary experimental methods and on the validity of the models used. It is expected that the work will inspire the participating teachers, collaborating with the design of interesting activities in the teaching of physics
