Are you the type of person that always seems to forget where you parked? Well here’s an easy solution, especially for those times you’re parking in an unfamiliar area, particularly in a city. Drop a pin for yourself. Whether you have an android or an apple phone, you have the ability to mark your location. So as soon as you park, drop that pin and you’ll have no problem finding your car later on.

If you’re driving a car you’ve never driven before, you might be wondering, which side of the car is the tank on? Well, this is actually easier to determine than you might’ve thought. In every car, there’s a little fuel pump symbol on your dash with an arrow next to it that points to whichever side the tank is on.

If you’re looking to get some work done on your car, there’s a good chance you’ll find yourself at a mechanic that is absolutely willing to lie to you and take advantage of your lack of knowledge about the vehicle. So, one great way to gauge if the mechanic is an honest one or not is to ask about a part of the car you’re positive is in great shape.

Whether you’re the bumper sticker type or the stick family type, it can be tough to get those pesky stickers off your car in one piece without leaving adhesive marks behind. If you’re having trouble with this, use warm water to soak some newspaper and place it over the sticker for about 10 minutes. It should come off much easier.

If you can see the back of your car in your side mirrors, they’re positioned incorrectly and this could potentially be dangerous. The best way to avoid blind spots is to position the mirrors so that no part of your car appears in them.
