ZARDOG's tips
DRIVING SAFETY = VISIBILITY
(Not just you being able to see,
but for others to see you)
-
Drive
with headlights on even during the day. This will increase
your visibility to other drivers.
-
Windows
Clear, no periscopes.
-
Lights
cleaned off
-
Inside and
outside windows clean
-
Wiper Blades
(they do not last forever)
-
Washer Fluid
???
Use Newspaper as a
window cleaning rag. It works.
Don't let your doors
and trunk get stuck:
Use a rag with
silicone spray on it to wipe all rubber gaskets on doors and
trunk. It will never ice over again. Spray the silicone into
the locks and lock mechanism.
HEADLIGHT BULBS-
there is a difference
Next time you need to
replace your headlight bulb. Move up to the brighter ones,
they also increase side illumination. Which is great out in
the country at night.
LENS
COVER CLOUDY -
Buff by hand with
newspaper and rubbing compound. there are commercial
products that will do the same.
---------
A cleaned off
car/truck will use less gas due to less weight and less drag
