Tips for Safe Car Driving

Almost every person in the world has a craze for car-driving and it is the only reason that cars are increasing at a very rapid pace. Driving a car is actually very joyful experience. But it becomes dangerous in case you don’t follow safety rules. Here are some tips:-

1. Learn from an Expert

Take your driving lessons from an expert and you will learn how to drive a car in a good way. Never hit the rush area till you become quite confident of your driving. Drive slowly and with extra care at least for two months.

2. Follow the Rules

Don’t invite death by ignoring the traffic rules. Follow the signals at the crossing. Violating the rules not only create confusion among others but also cause accidents. Rules are for your safety, and to maintain discipline on the roads.

3. Keep Your Car Fit

Like your body keep your car fit and healthy. Get it serviced from an expert engineer or workshop regularly. Before leaving your house be sure that headlight, indicators and brakes are working properly. And also ensure that the spare wheel is in good condition and air-tight.

4. Use Low Beam

Don’t use high beam of your headlight till it is absolutely necessary. High beam blurs the vision of other drivers and they may hit you in confusion.

5. Beware of Mobile Phones

Mobile phones have probably become the biggest safety hazard in modern world. People can neither leave them behind nor resist the lure of using when it rings. While driving using a mobile is dangerous. You may escape penalty from traffic policeman but you may not be able to escape putting your and others’ life in danger. To attend a mobile temporarily park your car on a safe side or reply the call later.

6. Indicate other Drivers

Do not take sudden turns or change lanes without using the indicators. It will help other motorists to drive safely and not to hit you. In case the indicators of your car are not working use the signals of your hand.

7. Be a Nice Human Being

Whenever there is any ambulance, fire tender or police car loosen the grip of your feet on the accelerator and let the other vehicle pass safely. Behave like a good and caring citizen on the road.

8. Overtake Cautiously

In case you want to overtake any vehicle indicate with two flickers of your headlight whether it is day or night. If needed indicate flickers again. Overtake when there is enough space to surge ahead or another vehicle allows you. Don’t endanger your or others’ life by rushing forward mindlessly like a movie hero. You are not even a stuntman and required by your family to reach home safely.

9. Keep a Safe Distance

Always drive your car keeping a safe distance from the vehicle running in front of you otherwise a sudden braking from other vehicle may cause collision and instead of the cozy bed at your home you may land up on the bed of a hospital. The more the speed the more distance you have to maintain. The distance will help you to stop your car safely.

10. Don’t Panic if Car Breaks Down

If your car breaks down on the way push it to a safe side of the road. Without hesitation take the help of any passerby if necessary. Leaving the car on the middle of road will obstruct traffic as well as endanger the safety of your car. Now try to get help from a nearby place. Keep phone numbers of some emergency help services in your diary or mobile. Use warning light till the car is repaired.

11. Park Safely

Park in a safe place preferably a guarded one. Be sure window panes are closed. Push the handbrake up. Keep the car engaged in gear. Be sure that you have drawn out the ignition key. Do lock the car before leaving. Use special security lock for extra safety. You will have a cooler mind and a better sleep.

And, of course, a happier life with your family.

Abandoning Auto Industry Car Models for New Hybrids

Why is the US Auto Industry so slow to change? Well there are many reasons for this and the biggest reason is that SUVs are very high-profit cars to sell. The average profit on an SUV could be five times that of a regular car and if the Automaker is to continue to impress Wall Street they need profits not just sales numbers. Currently in the United States they are selling approximately 17 million cars but there is no way they can sell 85 million cars and so if they do not have some high-profit sales in there, they cannot make their profit numbers.

Remember building cars is a business and that means that these giant corporations need to make money, as it is all about shareholder’s equity and quarterly profits and if they fail to hit their numbers the stock price will plummet and their credit rating will be junk. There are some major tough choices for the US Automakers and none of them right now look so enticing. But several of the choices down the road could be quite good for US Automakers and the country in the long run.

Many people are asking where are the US Automaker Hybrids? In fact I myself would buy one if they were available. Wouldn’t it be cool to have US Technology backing your car, which got some 80-100 miles per gallon and could run on gasoline or ethanol? That would be something and indeed it will happen, just not in the next few years that’s all. Consider all this in 2006.
