Easy With the Gas

2010 is ending, and as every month ends, we need a video that shows us how not to drive. Today is a video that shows what happens when you "step on it" a little too much.



Have a FANTASTIC 2011!

First Time Driving: Shelbi

Today's first time driver is Shelbi, who has a 14 minute video. The video contains two main characters: Shelbi who says "Oh my god" every 30 seconds and her father who calms her down right after that with "It's OK".

Watch it, it's fantastic.



This video was taken on Thanksgiving this year, November 25, so Shelbi still has a long way to go until she gets her license. Hopefully she's more calm by now.

Good luck!

Hell of a DMV

Tolerance is important everywhere, and critical at some places. A DMV employee who takes homosexuality too seriously was recently forced to resign from his job because he lacked it.

The employee saw that a man named David changed his name to Amber, and remembered that he once learned that people who change their gender are usually homosexuals. He then sent Amber a letter condemning her to hell because of this "abomination".

Now he probably learned that you may have any opinion you like, but you need to keep it to yourself if you're giving a service.

Car Insurance for Students

Being a student isn't easy. Tuition fees can get very high and getting to college with your parents can be quite uneasy and embarrassing, so you buy a car. Paying insurance on a car is never easy, especially for students. Here is an article by Sandra Clinton about easing this payment.

Student Car Insurance

Okay, so every now and then people will suspect that faction they belong to gets charged more for car insurance, and most of the time they are wrong. An insurance company could get in a lot of trouble if they based their rates on race or gender. They will not make that easy of a mistake. Still, they are able to get away with charging younger people more. This is somewhat justified. Younger people are less responsible. This is because they have not been given a chance to prove their responsibility yet. So, if you are looking for student insurance, you might have to pay a little more because of your age. Still, there are ways to prove that you are responsible enough to have lower rates. You just need to prove to the insurance company that you are mature enough to have lower rates.

Student car insurance rates are sometimes determined by the grades that the student is getting. If you are getting higher grades your insurance company might charge you less for insurance. This is a good incentive to do well in school. If you are a student you probably don't have too much money to spend on student car insurance to begin with. So, try improving your grades to see if you can get a good deal!

There are other things that can help you with student car insurance. If your parents have low insurance rates then they can add you to their plans and that can save you a lot of money. It's always cheaper to get added to other people's plans for things. Just think about it. Cell phones, gyms, and just about everything is cheaper if you add yourself onto someone else's plan. So, talk to your parents about being put onto their plan. You can tell them that you will pay for your part, but you would like to get a deal by being on their plan.

Lastly, we should talk about the negative impression people have about student car insurance. Some people think that student car insurance is somehow not as good of an insurance policy as adult insurance. That is just ridiculous. If you do get in an accident, your insurance company should be able to help you out. They should be able to do just as much as they would do for an adult. That doesn't mean they will, but they should. So make sure you don't just go for the cheapest rate around.

Hopefully this will help you find great student car insurance. You might have to do some hunting but it will be worth it. Be clever, because you are trying to prove to the companies that you are more than just a kid. You are a responsible driver who wants to pay as little as possible for car insurance.

Thank you Sandra! This will definitely help many students out there.

Install a Satellite Radio in Your Car

Traditional radio stations are great, but they have a major disadvantage: when you get out of their transmission range, you can't hear them. Satellite radio was invented just for that. You can listen to those radio stations all across the US without any interruptions (except tunnels).

Here is a video that shows how to install this radio.



Use it, it's great.

Driving Through the Snow (With no One-Horse Open Sleigh)

It's Christmas, and as a result it's very snowy in many parts of the world. When snow comes along, it brings real trouble in driving. Snow lowers the traction of the tires until it becomes almost none, which makes steering very hard and driving very dangerous.

So, what do you do? Walk. Seriously. Driving in the snow is really dangerous. If you have snow chains you can try to drive, but slowly. Low speeds are the key in surviving this snow driving.

Well, it's Christmas. You don't have to go anywhere. Stay at home, open your presents, and enjoy the holiday.

Merry Christmas!
