Will new laws teach us to play nice with others?

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

Rules; we have them whether you like it or not. Rules as a kid growing up helped mold us into responsible adults. Rules in school helped to guide us while we were educated. And rules throughout our adult life help to keep us in line. After a while it seems we forget about some of…

Reasons why I promote road safety…and you should too

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

I’ll sometimes be asked why I write about so many basic driving techniques. It’s simple; not everyone had these skills taught to them when they first learned to drive and others were taught them, but had completely forgotten them over their years of driving. Other reasons I write these types of articles – to get…

Do you retaliate to horn honking?

No one’s perfect; I get that. Mistakes do happen and if we’re lucky, we can learn something from them. But let’s be honest with ourselves; no one wants to make a mistake and many people dislike being told when they do make a mistake. Driving takes teamwork and the ability to swallow your pride if…

Parking brakes are more than just for parking

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

I’m sure there have been times in our lives where we don’t use the muscles we may have used previously. I remember playing baseball, then not throwing the ball around very much for a few years and then trying to get back out there and play again. My arm was sore and my legs were…

When your actions ruin the lives of others…

Posted in , , , , , , , , ,

Let’s face facts; many of us have tried to get away with things we’ve done wrong over the years. This is especially true when we were kids. But as we grow, don’t you think we need to take ownership of our own actions? This is especially true when our actions affect the lives of other…

Are you a competitive driver?

Posted in , , , , , ,

I have something to admit; I’m competitive. Many people are and we need to accept that. I love sports and my two sons loves sports as well. I’ve coached all of my four kids in different sports and activities throughout their early lives and I really enjoy it, and so do they. To many people…

Parallel parking made easy

Posted in , , ,

For the most part, many people learn to avoid what they don’t like. We even make excuses why we should avoid it. I don’t like it. I’m too busy and don’t have time. And the ever popular; I don’t want to. Does any of this sound familiar with you? One of the most common things…

When you have a fear of speed…

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

Throughout our lives we’ve always had to do things we never really wanted to do. We had to clean our rooms, eat our vegetables, visit the relatives we never really liked and be nice to our siblings. In many cases, these feelings of doing things we never like to do transfers over to us when…
