Are you a victim?

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

Do vehicle crashes affect more than the people who are directly involved in them? When we hear of a collision, we immediately think about who was injured; or worse, who has died in the crash. That’s important to know this in our society, but are there other “victims” of crashes. Perhaps you’ve been a victim…

How personal do you take it?

Posted in , , , , , , , , ,

I’ve met thousands of people over the years and most of them were nice people who took problems in stride. They were easy to get along with and fun to spend time with. What type of personality do you have? Do you let things slide off your back or do you take things personally? I’ve…

Are you a crash test dummy?

Posted in , , , , , , , ,

Human nature is a funny thing. We all have a few quirks that make people look at us and wonder what’s going on inside our head. I get that each time I do a different looking maneuver while driving. What appears to be wrong is only different. Have you ever noticed a driver do something…

Did you take your silly pills?

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

I often wonder if your can have the same experiences of a full moon during daylight hours. Or, maybe drivers take “silly pills” before they get into the car. We recently received a substantial amount of snow. We’ve been lucky this winter; rarely any snow at all. Driving along in the snow last night and…

Do your fears control you?

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

Watching the recent Winter Olympics has made me think; do these athletes have any fears? Can you imagine going down a hill as fast as possible with only a helmet on? I’m not a skier, but just the thought of flying down the hill gives me goose bumps. If they started out in their sport having…

Are you prepared to handle emergencies?

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

We all know that emergencies do happen from time to time, but are you ready to handle them when they do happen? I know that we all wish that emergencies would happen to someone else, but that’s not always going to happen when we’re driving. Since most drivers suffer from the “it-won’t-happen-to-me” syndrome, it may…

Time to clear the air

Posted in , , , , , , ,

Every now and then we need to be reminded of what’s right and what’s not right. That’s why we have parents to keep us in line when we’re kids and now the government as we get older. Rules help to guide our lives and whether we like the rules or not, we need to respect…

Another problem has hit the news lately for drivers; brake problems. Drivers are facing brake failure in certain types of vehicles. The manufacturers say it’s a computer problem from the vehicle. The computer problem can be fixed at the dealership, but the driver can also fix the problem by using their own computer; their brain….
