I have a really bad habit of brake checking people who are tailgating me. Ever since I moved down to Southern California, I am a much more aggressive driver that way. However, since working for a car accident lawyer, I am much more aware of how dangerous brake checking (or testing) is. It can not […]
I have been known to get a puncture in almost every tire of every car I have driven (knock on wood that it doesn’t happen to me anytime soon). Which means that I am familiar with riding on a spare until I can get myself to a mechanic. Today, on my way into work, I […]
