- Here's some things people might not know about their cars.
Ralph Teetor, the inventor of the cruise control, was blind.
The average American spends about 38 hours a year
in traffic. That is a lot of time.
In most new models of cars, you can see which side
of the car the gas tank is on.
It's the arrow right there.
If you have frosty windows in the morning,
try parking your car facing east.
Since the sun rises in the east, the sun's warmth
should help defrost the windows in the morning.
Science is crazy.
If your car is sweltering on a hot summer day,
here's a good trick to cool it down.
Roll down your window all the way,
then walk to the other side of the car.
To create a circulating airflow,
open and close the door five to ten times.
This should lower the temperature by ten degrees,
but be careful because you might look stupid.
Use the A.C. when driving at higher speeds to save gas.
Wind drag caused by open windows is more gas consuming
than A.C. is when driving faster.
Try not to use the A.C. when driving in traffic
because gas mileage can lower
when using A.C. at lower speeds.
Don't overfill your tank.
If using an automatic nozzle,
stop at the first click to save money.
You don't need anymore gas.
How to parallel park your car:
Start two feet forward from the car with your bumpers
parallel and your wheels turned all the way around.
Keep backing up with the wheels fully turned
until you can see the back car's
license plate in the side mirror.
While stopped, turn the wheels all the way around,
back it up, and park.
Also, this is a turn signal.
You might wanna use it when making a turn
or merging into another lane.
Thank you.
