Useful tip:
Most all vehicles have a recirculation button with the AC controls in their cars. But many of us are unsure when to use it.

Well, the easy answer is to use it in the summer and turn it off in the winter.

The recirculation button simply takes the air from inside the car and recirculates it in the cabin instead of pulling fresh air from outside. On days like today when it is miserably hot outside, if you do not recirculate the cooler air in the cabin, than your AC system is pulling hot air from outside and trying to cool it. Using the recirculation feature will get your car cooler and will decrease the wear and tear on your AC system.
- Side note, if your car has been baking in the sun, its better to roll the windows down and turn recirculate off for the first minute or so to get rid of the super hot air inside the car before turning the recirculate on.

Also, any time you are stuck in traffic ( summer or winter) be sure to use the recirculate. If you are pulling air from outside, then you are pulling in all the pollutants and carbon monoxide from all the traffic. Studies show that recirculating your AC can cut down on the pollutants entering your vehicle by 20% when stuck in traffic!

Wow where does the time go!

Keep to the left

Drivers who hog the middle lane of a motorway can cause unnecessary disruption. When you use the middle-lane for overtaking, make sure you return to the left-hand lane when it's safe to do so.

Drivers: please be extra vigilant during darker nights - this photo is scary

We share this every year. It is not created by The Parent Pack and it is only in the interests of child safety and awareness. No need to lose your heads over whether the pictures have been enhanced or changed or whatever. Child safety wins… always.

There is a child in both photos in the same position with a different colour coat on. Really important when choosing winter clothes.

There are three different colors of light that can be seen flashing on the dashboard of your car. These three colors have their own meaning that should always be remembered.

🔵Blue or green lights inform you that a system is functioning or operating.

🟡Yellow or orange lights are warning lights for something that needs to be checked and serviced as soon as possible.

🔴Red warning lights indicate that you should stop the car in a safe place as soon as possible and that it needs to be checked immediately. Note that some red warnings are safety warnings, like seatbelt reminders.

When the lights on your dashboard suddenly flash, it's better to pay attention to what color the light is so you will know what actions should be taken.
