Dew…and do not

Posted in , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

I’ve often said how important visibility is to drivers. Without good visibility, you may miss important information while driving. Has that ever happened to you? As I’ll say to my students I’m teaching at Young Drivers of Canada, you drive with your eyes and your hands and feet are tools for your eyes. Part of…

Winter washing woes

Posted in , , , , , , , ,

Looking after our vehicle is something we must all do, but do you think we shrug it off during winter weather? I’m sure you all realize that your vehicle needs mechanical checks before the snow begins to fly and that you need to prepare your vehicle for the cold temperatures, but is that enough? Do…

Your vehicle is like an infant

Do you have Spring “driving” fever?

Posted in , , , , ,

Spring fever; do you feel it? I love the spring season. The fresh air, the plants coming alive, better fuel economy and great driving music. You’ve got to love the driving music! I’ve started to witness more drivers getting spring fever. They’re driving with their windows down and arms hanging outside while they drive. Does…

Littering is a nasty driving habit

Posted in , , , , , ,

I recently posted an article about washing your car and cleaning the interior. I like having a clean car and garbage doesn’t belong on the floor any where; including my car. I guess it’s turned into a bit of an obsession for me. I despise littering and what’s worse is when someone throws garbage out…

Looking good, feeling good

Posted in , , ,

I know this may seem a little odd, but I enjoy washing my car. It gives me satisfaction knowing that it will give a good impression to my students and any new instructor I’m teaching for Young Drivers of Canada. It goes along with the saying that ‘if you look good, you feel good’. Do…
