teenage insurance by
leo
I just set up an account for an 18 1/2yo girl, with one accident on her
record. The rate is $4500/yr. I added an older girl, the rate remains the
same. WHAT IF I add a third boy who is 17 to the account. I think the rate
is already over the top that the boy might have very little effect on...

Every week someone posts here and says "I just got a speeding ticket

So you got a traffic ticket. You were cruising along in your

car carcasses left on side of road reduce accidents? by
Dan Jacobson
Say, if the government were to leave the carcasses of wrecked cars
along the side of the highway instead of towing them away, wouldn't
that constant visual reminder reduce accidents?
(Yes, pulled back a safe distance, and not on private property, and
sufficiently wrecked/burnt/rusted so there are...

Limbs outside of cars by
Wallaby
What is the big deal with drivers now hanging their arms outside of their
vehicles when driving?
Its about time the police started to throw the book at these posers! It is
an offence, ever since indicators were fitted to the automobiles.

Driving a Volvo Cross-Country 2.5 turbo in a big city by
florin
I'm on vacation in Vancouver, BC and, unfortunately, I rented
a Volvo 'cross-country' (mini-sunv/large station wagon)
with a 2.5 liter turbo engine. (I figured I may need the
AWD for my trip to the mountains). Well, the turbo lag on this POS
is extreme--at first I thought that the parking brake...

Gravel vs. Paved by
Bob Lutz
I have roughly a 20 mile commute to work. I can take mostly paved roads
and highways, or I can take a set of well-maintained gravel roads. Is one
way better or easier on the car than the other? The gravel roads are not
much bumpier than the highways.
