| Article Title :: Driving Our Car While Fighting To Stay Awake |
| |
| While on a trip, or even close to home, we all want to keep driving for as long as possible. Yet nobody, in their right mind, wants to be a threat to ourselves (or others) because we’re too sleepy to operate our motor vehicle. Self-awareness of our sleepiness is always the key to driving safely!In a report dated just last year 2004, the National Safety Council wrote that traffic death rates are 3 times greater at night - - than during the day!This report also stated, “Driving at night is more of a challenge than most people think and it’s much more dangerous”.So, you may ask, “What is it that makes night driving so dangerous”?The NATIONAL SAFETY COU (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Car Wash Survey - Trying to Match Reality with Figures |
| |
| We have all heard the saying, Liars figure and figures lie? Well today we shall look into the reality of the Survey of Automatic Car Washes. Did the industry in fact tell the truth? In the study of all those responding only 13% said they had no competition, which is probably a matter of mindset for if it were true it certainly will not be within a year or two. As the number of car washes in the United States is over 30,000. One could say that this is not a lie but rather wishful thinking. For instance one operator we talked to in Macon, GA who owned a full service carwash said he had no competition, but their were 2 self serve washes, 3 roll-over gas station carwashes and two hand was (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Eight Tricks Used by New-Car Dealers - Be Aware |
| |
| Car dealers, in their enthusiasm to get your business, often resort to "tricks" that can be misleading, deceptive, or even borderline fraudulent. Here are some prime examples:1. "We'll pay off your old car loan, no matter how much you owe"This is true, as far as it goes. However, if you owe more on your old loan than your car is actually worth, the dealer will simply roll the loan balance, minus the credit he gives you for your old car, into your new loan or lease. In effect, you will still be paying off the old loan along with your new loan. The dealer will typically not explain this extra detail.2.

| Article Title :: Auto Lemon -Can Your State's Lemon Law Help You? |
| |
| Buying a car is not like buying a radio; you cannot return it to the store for a refund if you do not like it, or if it has a manufacturing defect. In fact, for many years, if you purchased an automobile that came from the factory with defects, you were just stuck. You could try to get the dealer to repair the problem, but if the problem continued and the dealer could not repair it, you were out of luck.In 1982, the luck of owners of so-called “lemons” changed for the better, as California and Connecticut passed the nation’s first “lemon laws.” These laws, spawned by consumers who had waged tireless battles against major auto companies, allowed owners of defect (read full article) |
