Driving on Flat Tire

Image
I had a flat tire a few weeks ago. It is my hope that you can learn from what I did right, and from what I did wrong.I was headed to work in my 2010 Mustang. It was 5 am and I was blasting down the freeway at something like 70 mph. My commute is around 25 miles, or 30 minutes. I was almost there when I started to feel a strange vibration in the car. I did not have a clue as to what was happening. The car felt like it was going over a rough road, but I seemed to remember this section of the freeway as being in good condition.  Then the thought crossed my mind that I was losing control of the car. FLAT TIRE! Is what my brain finally screamed out. In all this time I had not slowed down, and looking back I think I drove about a mile while I was trying to analyze what the hell was going on. Luckily for me there was no traffic around me as I dove for the right side of the road. The car went through some wild gyrations as I was getting it stopped, and once I was safely parked ...

Driving on Empty

Image
     A lot of us continue to drive after the low fuel light comes on even though we shouldn’t. Whether it’s the price of gas, inconvenience, or just procrastination, some of us wait until the last minute to fill up the tank. Waiting until your gas tank is empty to fill it up could end up costing you far more than the tank of gas though. A 2015 survey found that every year, more than 827,000 drivers ignore their vehicle’s low fuel warning light and run out of gas. Additionally, 25% of all drivers believe they can make it another 40 miles once the light turns on. According to experts, driving around on empty (or almost empty) is a foolish idea. Fuel gauges are not always accurate, and accuracy can vary based on a number of factors including your driving style and your car’s fuel economy. Experts warn motorists to use a fuel gauge as an estimate – rather than an exact measurement – of how far they can make it before running out of fuel. Running out of fuel i...
