Safety

Is it true that in order to find out which side of the car your gas tank is on while sitting in the car just look at your gas guage. Just look at the little gas pump shown next to your gas guage inside your car and it will have a little arrow on either the left side of the little gas pump or right side of the gas pump which the arrow is showing you which side of the car the gas tank is on. Is this true? I don't have this feature in my car and was just curious. Thanks

A motorist has pleaded guilty to driving at 172mph, making him the fastest speeder ever caught in the UK

Personally i think the court should make a exsample of this pillock.
Your views please

I went to a fast food drive-thru and got a meal and two drinks that were placed in a cup holder, by the drive thru attendant.

I passed the cup holder, in the way it was given to me, to my passenger.

She placed it in her lap and held it with one hand.

As we proceeded to drive-off. One of the cups fell out of the cup holder, the lid fell off and she received burns to her legs.
Obviously the cup was not secured in the cup holder and the lid may not have been on properly.

Before proceeding with a claim I want to know if any one has had a similar experience. or has direct knowledge of similar claims.

Anything to be concerned about if I change the 215/55/70's with a Z rating (on a G35) to H rated tires of the same size? I drive the G35 normally-- never speed, never exceeds speeds of 70-75mph, corner carefully and slowly, stop in a safe manner, etc. Essentially, I treat the car as if it was an old Volvo, but it comes with Z rated tires which are designed for real speed and power.

my wife was hit from the back and shooved into the vehicle in front and in split seconds she was whisked away to the A&e. the cops must have gotten the car towed away. Was only released from A&e MIDNITE. we called the insurance ppl to inform them. but we're not getting any rite answers from anyone. tHE cops are saying that they're not able to lodge the report as the other 2 parties haven;t reported the incident. The person who hit the car from the back is now saying that she is hospitalised. My wife noticed that she was abt to drive off after the bang but was stopped by the vehicle owner from the front . Now, we just got a mercy car courtesy of the offenders insurer was told that they would go see if the car is ok or its a write off. What do we do next? The ppl at the tow company is sayin that we should pay n take the car out asap, y should we pay?. We're just going in circle's no one is saying anything. Should we get out solicitors involved.

Hi,
I bought a second hand toyota corolla. When I have my keys in on position it shows the check engine light in yellow. If I start the car, it goes off. What does it mean. It never glows when the car is running.

Hi, a friend told me that Saabs are a very safe make of car (as in if you get into an accident they're more robust) and I mentioned that my 17 yr old brother (just passed his test and fairly easily distracted!) drives my mum's Nissan Micra, and she said Nissans crumple easily in accidents. So does anyone know how true this is - are some cars more robust than others and would they protect you more in an accident?

Please don't tell me it's about cost. Having that feature on cars would do more to boost sales than the cost of installing the feature. What is wrong with those people? Do they not understand the importance of safety?

Everyone knows that MOTs are nothing more than a piece of paper that says your vehicle is road worthy at the time the test is taken but doesn't guarentee that as soon as you drive your vehicle off site the brakes wont fail, the exhaust won't fall off, the seat belt won't hold you in place etc etc etc. So what is the point?

My mother, who lives in Illinois, has a handicap hangtag, and printed on the bottom is "remove while car is in motion" which she does (good for mom). I think that's an important rule as it creates a blind spot for the driver.

My question is if other states have the same instructions printed on the hang tag, and why so many people drive with them in place? It would appear to be a safety hazard, as it blocks the view of traffic towards the right, especially if you are short. Taking it off and storing it takes about 2 to 3 seconds.

I am tempted to encourage my state lawmaker to introduce a bill making it illegal to have anything hanging from the rearview mirror while the vehicle is in motion, since it creates a serious blind spot, which can be avoided.
