Always Aware?



Think you are a good driver? Why not watch this video and put your acute skills of observation to the test! Ready, set, go!


Alright, all done? How did you do? It is hard to be aware of everything even when you are paying attention – so imagine how texting, putting makeup on, or talking on the phone impacts your level of situational awareness!

Does your car look cool when it's hot?



Summer is here in full swing and so is everything we associate with these temperate days – ice cream, boardwalks, sunblock, and tacky souvenirs. Unfortunately, the summer wreaks havoc on your car as it must endure hours upon hours in the heat. So here are some things you can do to protect your car while you are having fun in the sun.

Park in the shade – most of us pay for the privilege of walking on a treadmill at the gym. Why not park in the shade and walk a few extra steps?

Buy a car sun visor – either wild or mild in design, this cheap accessory will definitely keep your car cool in the summer.

Tint your windows – while this is a little more costly, you will reap the benefits of tinted windows year-round.

Get your car waxed – not only will you protect your car’s paint by waxing it – but your car will also look super sleek and shiny. Now that is a double win!
