What to do in an Accident
Car crashes happen every day. They can tie up traffic, slowing our commute and may cause us to skip that extra cup of coffee before rushing out of the house. But what happens if you are involved in a car accident? Being knowledgeable of what to do before an accident happens can ease the stress of the situation. Please remember these tips in the event that you are involved in an accident. Stay calm […]
COOL APPS FOR YOUR CAR
As technology gets more and more high tech, there are cooler and cooler apps for your phone that you can use for your car. Long gone are the days when you could just make phone calls, and we are way past playing games (although those are quite fun too), but nowadays apps are even more useful. With gas prices getting higher and higher, there is an app called Gas Buddy. It’s a free app, which […]
MOST COMMON HOLIDAY ACCIDENTS
We are told that holidays are all about family, the spirit of giving, the time to eat, catch up, reminisce of days past and of course the giving of gifts. What we aren’t told, is that many holidays are insurance nightmares. With so many accidents happening around this time causing property and bodily harm, it’s a wonder people have any fun at all. Fortunately, most of these accidents can be avoided with a minimum of […]
DRIVING IN SNOW
Driving in the snow can be a tricky thing. If you are well prepared for it, and remain calm, you will greatly minimize your chances of being in an accident. Think ahead and watch out for the other guy. One of the keys to surviving snow season is getting your tires checked BEFORE winter approaches. This will differ depending on where you live. Some people opt to get new tires every year, but a simple […]
RANT ABOUT TURN SIGNALS
Of course turn signals are essential for changing lanes. Theoretically, the cars in the other lane will see the signal, and slow down allowing the car into the new lane. However in many intersections, lanes can be used to either go straight or to turn, and not signaling and then turning can cause lots of frustration (not to mention screaming of unmentionable words) to other drivers. When pulling into an intersection, I may have a […]
CHECK AND CHANGE YOUR COOLANT
As you drive, especially in very hot or very cold climates, you are going to need to make sure that you have enough coolant or antifreeze in your car. This will keep your engine from freezing or over heating, which can cause a lot of damage and very expensive repairs. It’s very important preventative medicine for your car. If you had to, you could use regular water to cool your engine, but more often than […]
ELECTRIC CAR IS SO YESTERDAY
What’s lighter than a Honda Motorcycle, gets you high, and has caught the FAA’s attention? The electric plane, that’s what! A team of high school students from here in Las Vegas have built a 2 seater plane that can go 200 mph and flies at 1000 ft. These kids are really something, they’re not old enough to drink yet, but they are causing the FAA to take notice. These Rancho high school students were picked […]
DISCOUNTS, DISCOUNTS, DISCOUNTS!
Insurance, it’s something we all need to buy (sometimes because it’s good to, and sometimes because it’s the law), and yet, while we’re paying every month, we’re hoping to never have to use it. There isn’t much in life that you pay for but don’t want to use. So if you could spend less every month, without having less coverage, wouldn’t you want it? Of course you can shop around for different insurance companies, and […]

LANE LUCK
There is this little thing that some people have, and some people don’t. I like to call it lane luck. If this phrase doesn’t immediately bring thoughts of traffic jams in your head, then you might be one of the blessed few that possesses this gift. It’s not something you can teach a person, you either have it or you don’t. Still confused? Let me explain… Picture this: you are driving on the freeway (or […]
