I havent had a license in 7 years and I'm ready to get it back. But I've recently gotten a job offer and can't wait a few months to drive. Do they issue special permits that allow you to drive only to and from work?

I've heard all about wrecks prior to airbags and how helpful they are supposed to be, but I've also heard how kids can be killed by them and all kinds of freak accidents involved and how they sometimes go off for no reason and cause and accident. So are they really more safe or unsafe?

I had a little fender bender and everything seems all right, but when I start my car it sounds like a fan or belt is making a squealing noise. Did I knock something loose or something? Also, should I do any follow up since I had the fender bender on my car's maintainence?

I am a lady in my 60's. I am a car person, having Classic Shows Cars for years. So...I take great care of all my cars. They are in A1 condition. I have an '85 Buick Regal that I have been paying full coverage insurance on for 22 yrs. The car is immaculate. Blue book at this point is very low. Under $2,000. I recently hit a tree with the right front of the car and the estimate is $3,200 to fix it. Needs a fender, hood and other items. The insurance company says they will not pay to fix it because the value is lower that the cost to fix it. BULL I told them. I have been paying you for 22 yrs and have FULL ($300 deductible) COVERAGE. What Legal Theory are you using? If I pay you, then you pay me, no matter what the cost is. That is what I pay that premium for every year. My question: How can they do this? It can't be legal! If they won't fix it then they should return all my premiums. right?

Every so often, when I try to start my car and turn the key, the car does not start. It gently ticks in rythmic sequences. I try again, and again, and it's not until I try about 12-15 times that it works. It always eventually works when I keep trying. It's happened a total of 3 times and has been happening for the past year and a half. What's wrong with my car? Do I need to fix it? How much would it cost total (including labor) if I choose to fix it? Thanks!!!

I live in Texas and it's reeally hot, I've been feeling like we shouldn't buy a car if it's black due to the idea that they absorb the heat more. Is this really true? If the AC works well is it really an issue? I just found a great deal on a black Nissan, it's like new, should I consider it even in spite of the black, Or, should I stick with the lighter colored car? What's your experience?

Honda has started production of the CBR 125R for Canadian consumption. This stylish features a clean burning 4-stroke engine that has lower emission and improved fuel economy.

My wife would love this bike but we live in the United States. I know that world wide Honda produces 125's that used to be offered in a less efficent more polluting 2-stroke engine that they could not import to the USA. Now that Honda is producing a 4-stroke that will pass the tough EPA laws here in the United States, why wont they import entry-level sport bikes to the USA?

Should I buy or lease? Should I get ABS? Is it worth it to shell out a few thousand more bucks to get better safety features and a longer, more comprehensive warranty? Is it worth it to save a few thousand bucks by getting a car which is 5 years old instead?

I am thinking about buying a used police car (1997 Lumina) with 70,000 miles on it. I think it is for sale for $2,000. I am not sure whether it is a good idea to by an ex cop car. My buddy told me that the cops probably did a lot of idleing and starting/stopping the engine. He said starting/stopping a lot is one of the biggest wear and tear on a car because of the engine not recieving oil on start up for a few moments. Basically I would just like to know if it is worth it or not to go ahead and get it. Thanks.

I live in southern Indiana and would like to take a train to Indianapolis some days, but alas, there exsists no passenger train route (even though a freight route does exsist). Europe has a much more established train system that seems to allow anyone to get almost anywhere.
Is anyone else frustrated with the poor infrastructure of passenger train route in America? What can I, as a citizen, do about this?

Have a small problem with my honda CRV '98 model, runs great BUT the past month have had a problem with the bleeper for unlocking the doors [changed battery] and then it would work sometimes..........changed the fuse for all the doors now will not work but once every 20 / 30 times of being pushed.
The central lock button on drivers side also is only working every 1 in 10 [ish] times of being used.
