Question:

Why the speedometers are not turn when the vehicle is reverse?
Ladies and gentlemen, please keep it relevant to the topic!
I am not having a pop at anyone in particular (for a change!). Just want to get some feedback.
Why is it that every time i close my car door i get an electric shook when i touch the door?
Enjoy.
Answers:
Because they feel in control? I think most people have an over rated perception of many of their skills, simply because they have no experience of what it would be like to be better at it, so maybe they think this is as good as it gets.
If you have a blow out while traveling, how should you bring the vehicle to a stop?
Although I always feel safest when my mommy is driving!
***CAN someone please help me with TRUCK TIRE advice??***?
These people usually have never been involved in an acident,so do not drive with adequate caution for there surroundings and conditions.While each of us are safely within our own vehicles on the road, we get comfortable with our own driving ability. That works to give us what COULD be a false sense of security, and a skewed view of our driving ability.
While insulated with our car surrounding us, we rarely have an objective opinion about how OUR driving may cause chaos on the road for others.
What are three types of vehicle repair organisations?
people put to much trust in their cars sometimes and feel they are immune from getting hurt if, especially new big carsBecause humans are critics and hypocrites
Has the speed limit been enforced on the German Autobahn yet?
I think the people who think they are good drivers are actually the most dangerous drivers. They get complacent and therefore less aware of other road users. They become inpatient with other drivers and intimidate them which can then lead to more cautious drivers becoming flustered and consequently making mistakes.If you could choose a speed limit for driving cars, what would it be?
Maybe they don't think they're overrated. And there are some others out there who, given the things I've seen them do while driving, probably don't rate their own driving skills. I think there are others who consider themselves a good driver just because they've never been in an accident, no matter how poorly they drive.If my lights work fine for my trailer that I am pulling, but the park lights don't work, is that ok?
I strive to be what I consider to be a good driver, by doing things (or not doing things) I would like other drivers to do (or not do) for me.
Why does my car go faster when....?
When you first pass your test you think your Micky Schumacher and drive like such.After a few years and knocks, you realise your actually pretty bad and slow down a bit.
Im 38 and have realised that every journey is a learning experience.
Its irresponsible to allow 17 year olds to drive high powered cars straight after passing their test.
They dont allow it on motorcycles, so why not cars..?
Im a better car driver after taking my bike test, and riding for a few years.
The first time you let a kid loose himself in a car he,s gonna want to show off unless he knows better. Thats why my twin 8 yr olds have 50cc motorbikes. They respect speed, and the dangers that come with it. This was achieved in controlled conditions and yes they have came off, but they learned a lesson and it has stuck in their brain.
Fall off or make a mistake at speed = PAIN.
Lose control at a controlled speed = a half chance of saving yourself.
Its this simple. Start them young and even if they do drive like morons, at least they have some experience.
Help I need idea and points for my debate. Title:Drivers should not use cell phones when driving.?
I am a highly-trained driver with many years experience in pursuit, close-protection and escape & evasion techniques, and whilst I consider myself to be a good, safe driver, it has been well drilled into me that I, as a human being, am falliable, so whenever I'm driving, at speed or under normal conditions, I am aware of my surroundings and continuously adjust my driving plan relative to the conditions presented. My actions have consequences.Question? are the safty stickers for ATV's free or do i have to pay for them.?
I have seen too many accidents, mainly young lads in "Kevved-up" little cars, who are just too cocky by far, drive dangerously and have no concept of what might happen.
Is it OK to just put the overdrive in an "ON" position no matter what the driving condition is?
At the end of the day, we're all human and can make mistakes.
Have you ever been in a serious auto accident?
I would say that I AM a good driver, but that doesn't make me invincible, nor protect other people from accidents. You have to be realistic.
How do I go about disabling a garage door openers safety sensors?
Because everyone believes they are good and know what they are doing, including me. But they don't know it all.If you got into a taxi and he started driving backwards, would the driver end up owing you money?
Try asking anyone you meet if they think they are a good driver"Oh Yes I'm a great driver" is the usual reply
Then ask them
"If you had to sit a driving test tomorrow do you think you would pass"?
The answer is usually "No I wouldn't"
HMMMM what does this tell us?
Electrical safety at home slogan?
Most people feel any criticism of their driving ability is a direct attack on their integrity and personality. Good drivers are not dangerous drivers are they!, so everyone says they are a good driver.I agree with Bush Raide, I too have had extensive driver training.One thing the Metropolitan police told me was that everyone is human and if you have an accident it is never completely the other persons fault.There is always something you could have done to avoid it.
Therefore I consider myself an above average driver who is always trying to improve on what he knows already.
Who is at fault in this car accident?
People should realise that after the test the learning never ends.
Can i find information on motor vehicle accidents in my area?
everyone thinks they're the best butI AM THE BEST DRIVER.....just kidding, couldn't resist.
This is such a complex question in disguise.
Whatever people do, they tend to think that they are good at it, when the reality is quite different. It applies as much to playing the piano as it does to driving. However, on the basis that monkeys never make good pianists, and show little interest in ever trying to be, it is obvious that there is something about humans which makes them want to be top-dog and competitive; even though they fail regularly.
How can i tell this friend about his driving?
Is it very different from teenagers who arrive with a string of A-levels at university, and think they are God's gift to humanity?
Make speaking in the class about who is better car or bus for travilling and why??
Education is about demonstrating to people that, whatever they think they know, they actually know very little at all.
What does it take to be a "top driver" in this world?
Is pouring hot water on your windshield and windows a safety hazard in the winter?
This is not the same thing as being a Michael Schumacher, because there are top truck-drivers who never, ever have accidents. Top police-drivers who can pursue people at high-speed and in relative safety. Top chauffers who would never spill your drink...and so on.
Who manufactures the manhole covers for the city of Daytona and FL Department of Transportation?
The difference between a "top driver" and the rest, is one of basic honesty.being true to one's own abilities, strengths and weaknesses, and then driving within them.
Truck drivers use Log-book and every body know, they lie about On-duty hours. Why they have to lie??
That applies to anyone, no matter what it is they are doing, and concert-pianists don't get there by passing a few exams, they get there by suffering and by constantly striving for perfection.
I apologise for the self-indulgence here, but I do it to make a point.
Why 9 out 10 people that hate music from cars have or enjoy loud exhaust from motorcycles?
I have driven possibly in excess of 2,000,000 miles, and in that time, I have not had a blameworthy accident ON THE ROAD. (I have done the odd bit of damage trying to manouevre a very large truck in difficult places).
Should Mexican truck drivers be allowed into the us without back ground and drug testing.?
Does this make me a good driver, a lucky driver or someone with a big opinion of myself?
Is there a map of all the dsa driving test centres at a glance?
I would suggest none of these, but the chances are, I'm a fairly competent driver who knows that he CAN make mistakes and has done.
Bus design for off road purpose?
However, it goes deeper than this, because when I was young, my great passion was motor-sport. I would tear around like a mad-thing in the days (and especially the nights)when the roads were almost empty. Even snow was a challenge, and I would go out and practice; finding "safe" bends with run-off areas, until I had it licked.
Even drivers like Schumacher started by having accidents, and by the time they got to the top, they KNEW they were not perfect and that they could get it wrong from time to time. The top grand-prix drivers rarely drive at 10/10ths all the time, but leave a bit in reserve. When push comes to shove, they can find that bit extra, but it is only a fraction more than they can produce most of the time.
I would suggest that GOOD driving is always leaving that little bit in reserve, just in case.
Does anyone know why would my trailors electic breaks would lock as soon as I was in motion?
So when I claim 2,000,000 miles of safe driving, people are often amazed and even dazzled by that record, but personally, I know that I can never be good enough to be perfect and completely immune to danger.
Where can i find a seat belt button cover?
That is reality, but many choose to live in a fantasy world of self-delusion and ego.
So I'm glad to say that I'm a rotten driver, still trying to get better at it, and maybe that is the real secret.
Is it allowed by law to have passengers in a 5th wheel trailer while traveling?
I would not go as far to say I am a good driver but the top end of average I try to watch whats going on with the three cars in front that is if the first car of the three brakes that means everybody in front has to brakeall though not the case if you think every driver on the road is an idiot you avoid situations that can cause trouble
How do I get a job as a Crash Test Dummy?
I don't have an answer, but I have run into this a lot. In a situation when I have an insufferable "superior" driver telling me how good he is and how I should be driving, I calmly ask him how many tickets he has, that usually shuts him up, but they just brush that off and act like they are hero awards.What age group/nationality causes the most auto accidents?
Since we were cave people ( not in afganistan ) we thought we could defeat dianosuars . Then we thought we could conqueuor civilizations. Now we think we own the road. It's all about a false sence of pride and arrogance that humanbeings seem to thrive on . The real reason for the driving perception problem is that they will give a drivers license to just about anyone which means they think they can drive when in reality they should stick to walking or the bus if they can't even ride a bicycle . Not everyone survives being attacked by a T-rex .Is this a good remote control car?
I have an under rated perception of My driving ability, I'm probably much better than I think I am.On the behind the wheel drining test in california are you also tested on the freeway?
