Whether you’re a fleet driver, handling a fleet or are simply an everyday motorist, it’s easy to be blasé about the effects of diet and coffee consumption on driving ability.

How much do you love your car? Whether it’s your pride and joy, or simply your means of getting from A to B, I’m sure the answer is “a lot!”. Well, since Valentines Day is coming, we challenge you to prove it and show your car some love. Car care is the trick!

You insert your key into the ignition and turn it. Nothing happens. Wait, something does happen, the battery light comes on. Yes, surprisingly enough, this is the moment most people decide to look into how to choose a new car battery.

Bang, crash, wallop. Three sounds you never want to hear while driving, especially when your pride and joy is relatively new. Why? Because it usually means you’ll have to figure out some ways to remove small dents from a car – your car!

A visit to the auto repair shop can often be an intimidating experience for most of us. Why? Because usually you are in a position where you know that the mechanics know [a lot] more than you do. You feel it can be easy for them to dupe you so they can add a few extra items and drive up the bill.

Winter is no longer coming. We’re right in the middle of it, so it’s a perfect time to refresh one’s memory about safer driving in winter.

All things wear out. It’s a natural procedure after all. Your tires couldn’t be the exception. Holding your vehicle’s cargo and constantly being in contact with the surface of the road — smooth or graveled — tires wear out in time. So, whether you see signs of wear and tear (you might not able to diagnose this one on your own) or not, sooner or later you’ll need to replace your vehicle’s tires.

Ah the open road. There’s nothing like it. The wind in your hair, radio tuned to your favorite station and that feeling of freedom. That is until you check how fast the fuel gauge is going down and then you start to stress about fuel costs.

Fuel costs. They only ever seem to go up, right? Unfortunately neither you or I can control that. It’s up to the oil oligarchs of far off lands.

But all is not lost. What we can do is control how we use our fuel to get the best use possible out of it. And yes, actually cut our own fuel costs.
