I live in Northern Ca and I'm driving to Southern Colorado for the holidays. I was wondering what to bring in case of an emergency. I have a road side kit you buy at Costco, it has flares, jumpercables, tire hole sealer, flashlight, etc, all the basic stuff. I already keep a gallon of water in the back just in case but is that enough? What about a blanket or some energy bars? I have a reliable truck but this is the first time I've made the drive out there myself in the winter. so any advice on what to bring?

ok i'm a new driver and i was just wondering what i should do with my left leg when i'm driving. i already asked my mom and she said just find a comfortable position. but i can't cuz i have a hip problem so if my leg is bent at the knee and close to my chair, it hurts my hip. and it's pretty much the same deal if my leg is outstretched...even though i can't really stretch it that much because then my foot ends up near the emergency brake.

any suggestions? i was thinking about having it amputated lol j/k. but i will absolutely not drive with my leg in my seat.

I was driving when a man coming the opposite direction mad a left hand turn into a a construction driveway.I was about 300 ft away from this man He made the turn no problem, then as soon as my car became perpendicular to the rear end of his truck he slammed it in reverse and completly bashed in side of my car forcing me onto a divider. Cop said he had already backed out then I ran into him, but I have no front end damage to my car, being my fault. What do I do???? HELP!!!!

Ok, an ambulance was coming behind me, so, I pull to the right, and stop. (with indicator lights on) Some a**hole behind me lays on the horn, pulls out, gave me the finger. He pulled out in front of the ambulance by the way. Are people just complete a**holes, or do they not know the rules?

signs it has been found that Libra & Aquarians produce the worst drivers (for accidents and parking tickets ) with Gemini and Leo as the best drivers (least accidents and tickets).

Me as a Libra: one parking ticket, one speeding ticket in 30 years of driving.

After all, people eat, smoke, drink, talk, play with their radios, read the paper, put their hair in curlers, watch tv..... All while they are driving and all of which are distractions from driving, yet noone is considering a ban on most of them.

I don't use my brights if i see a car in front of me(ie we're on the same side of the road and i'm behind them) and its common sense to not use them while passing...(one on each side of the road). but for some reason people love to use them no matter what. i have to re-adjust my mirrors so i'm not blinded by the people behind me.

so how far away is it proper to use them?

I just returned home, and wasn't in the house for more than 15 minutes when I heard my car alarm go off. When I went outside, some nearby neighbors told me they heard a loud "boom", my car alarm went off, and the people across the street from me ran into their house. I looked at the car and there is a dent on the back of it. What do I do? I've never had this happen before. Please help.

I've been raised in an eco-friendly family in a not so eco-friendly community and it bothers me. I'm sick of seeing 16 year old girls driving their new range-rovers and boys driving audi a4's and then, they join "save the earth" or "students against global warming" which are clubs in my school. Don't they realize how hypocritical they are? maybe i'm stereotyping and i apologize if i am. I know some of you may have a hybrid and an SUV, or a hybrid SUV but i'm just very aggravated. As for me? everyone on my streeet has an average of two children and drives a seven passenger luxury barge except for my family which is one with three boys. we have a 35 mpg saab station wagon with a four cylinder turbo-charged engine. so please tell me, what goes through the minds of these people? hydrogen powered cars wont happen over night. we need a benchmark, and, a example for our children (even though i have none).

Again, i'm sorry if i have offended any of you - i just am dying to get my opinion out.

come to an intersection. Green light. Drive through. Your making sure no one is crossing. You have a car behind you. An all the sudden to your left. There are people crossing traffic. Not in your way. But you slow down just in case they come in front of you. But you don't let them cross. Because your sort of stuck coming off an intersection, and a car behind you. Could you get in trouble; for not letting someone cross a crosswalk if a cop saw you? Thanks for the info.

Think how much money this would save. If this money was put into health care this would save many more lifes than the people who drown when a ship sinks which is quite rare.
