    Do you leave valuables in your car?

    I have only locked myself out of both my home and my car once. You would think the first time I would have learned but it took two instead. Seldom will I leave anything in the car other than a pair of sun glasses.

    How often do you stop on road trips?

    Nine hours would be horrid. I tend to get claustrophobic on road trips even in a large vehicle so trying to do something like that all in one go would make me stir crazy.

    Classics

    I think the 60's are my favorite decade when it comes to classic cars and trucks. I still love ones like the Model T, who wouldn't? But yes, the sixties are where its at.

    Eating or Drinking Whilst Driving

    Not in my car if you expect a ride. I have two options for people; attempt that in my car and then find yourself walking or do not do it in the first place.

    Bus Driver

    I do not remember off hand but I know most places will test you if you are coming up to the point of needing a renewal. It happened to a buddy of mine and while he aced it, he said it felt harder than the first time he was tested.

    Insurance dinged us

    I wonder if its possible that someone could challenge that who is an atheist? Just a thought but yea its a bummer. I might need to look into the specials to see if its possible but I am not too sure it is, especially after the fact.

    Poorly designed

    I am wondering who actually designs the shopping strips in my area, most turn ins off the main roads are too narrow. Even with a car it tends to be an issue properly pulling into the plaza. Do they not realize people need a little extra room sometimes?

    Insurance dinged us

    We just got word back that our insurance is not going to pay to fix our car that was given a few "wisdom marks" from a hail storm recently. I thought insurances covered weather like this??

    No car allowed

    No one would get to school, no one would get to work, emergency staff would be screwed to help someone in need. I see where you are going with this and I am all for saving when you can, but something like this could cripple a country too.

    Dealing With Sun Glare

    Right now I am waiting on a shipment of Gunnar's (glasses). I am getting both a pair for at the computer since I am sitting in front of two each day for work and a pair of sun glasses as going into work I "drive into the sun".

    International driver's licencing

    When I was in London we just ended up using our home license and had vacation paperwork, nothing fancy at all. I am sure its different if you plan to relocate though.

    Other forums?

    I really do not visit forums all that much but I have about a handful that I visit, this is the only car site now though as the one one went under (the owner gave up on it). Do others here collection forums to visit?

    License points

    The first and only time I got docked was for "Driving more than 10 mph but less than 25 mph above the posted limit" which ended up being 4 points for me. Thankfully it was years ago (almost eons) and they have all dropped off now.

    Garage, cover or nothing?

    I am really starting to think that a carport might benefit us here, but what is the worth of it? At some point we might sell this place, how much value does it add in comparison to a garage?

    The streets in your town.

    They do a pretty decent job of keeping the highways up to par but some places are still in need of some serious repair. When you get out in the boonies like where I live the roads are not taken too well by those city/gov workers. In the winter its a farmer with a snowplough on his truck instead...

    Best car

    I am talking about three types; the family car, the single car and the racing car. What does everyone think here? Do we have some favorites that can spark some chatter? :)

    Does it also improve the performance?

    That might depend, what are you thinking of exactly? I know some people that swear by it but few that can back the argument up. Keeping your car clean and in proper function allows it to do its job better. That seems like something everyone should know.
