Car Secrets Only The Most Experienced Drivers Know 

Another car-related secret: Some of the signs at the roadside have got magical numbers on them. Keep your speed below that number, and you will get pulled over less frequently and don’t pay for speeding tickets anymore!

I'm told these levers are particularly hard tp find on BMWs, although I'll never have the money to try that out personally.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👌👌

It is nobody's business where I am going!!!

Not all headrests are removable, check yours first before you need to, if yours don’t, don’t waste your time

Not all seat belts are adjustable at the anchor.

Agree@@1988dgs

Another reason why blinkers sometimes blink really fast (It's also called hyperflash fyi) is because there's some sort of disruption between the cars computer and the wires going to the blinkers.

Head rests? I thought we had head restraints instead for at least the last 30 years?

Those rules apply to US also. Left lane is "passing lane" or "fast lane".

@@bgezal Not the “fast lane”, there’s no such thing. Passing lane

Alberta it's against the law to drive in the left lane as it's now classified as a passing lane and yep same here soooo many azzholes

In NJ they have signs all over the garden state parkway that say "Slower traffic keep right" Unfortunately a lot of people just sit in the left lane. Then they get all mad and irritated when someone passes them on the right. You would think they would get a clue and realize to move to the right lane when half a dozen cars pass them but nope. The driver just tells himself that those people are nuts.

This “left lane” stuff is for highway driving so don’t get your knickers in a twist if someone is in the left lane and isn’t passing you. They may need to make a right turn!

Yes height will help. It can also be the angle at which you're holding it. Most people "point" it at the car and the transmitted signal can be quite weak in that direction as opposed to holding it so that the flat side is facing the car.

I've tested this. Hold the FOB up and then touch it to my forehead. The forehead always seems to provide a stronger signal. While I'd like to attribute this to my superior brain, it works with any good skin contact.

@@BrandyBalloon That would be consistent with antenna placement which often is at the lower backside in many cases.

@@sysghost That's where a lot of folk have their brians.

@@dotar9586Why would you perpetuate this idiocy? You think it's funny to see idiots holding their fobs to their heads running around a parking lot? Well..I guess I would too. No, this doesn't work and is stupid. THINK! The fluids in the brain do...something, ok, then the fluids in my ARM can do....something...

True. He's the best!

yep!:)

True

The magazine "Car Audio" posted an article about the car alarm under the chin thing back in the early 1990s when car alarms were popular. It really works. Or at least it "worked" way back then. I still do it, but I am not sure if it works like it used to or not being that everything is using higher frequencies than they used to so I don't know if the using your head as an antennae works still.

I understood completely now. I need to drive 75 mph in a 30 mph zone to fully maximize my time saving

Yep. Being a pilot changed the way I drive once GPS became the norm for small planes. I noticed that on a long flight, the ETA would only change by a few minutes +/- when I encountered a small tailwind or headwind that changed by cruise speed by ~10 MPH.

Most people drive 5 or so over the posted limit. You would have to drive about 100 miles to make a couple minutes of advantage, so it's pointless for most drivers.

Bottom line- speed is fun. Sigh…I think speeding is a genetic problem.

I remember when I was very young, I couldn't figure out how the moon always seemed to follow me. Parallax! Duh. Oh and try going over 30 mph in a very low go-cart. It feels like 60 mph. Now try 80+mph! Wheeeee!!!!

Real (its been years since i had taco bell)

🌮🔔=☢️💣🚽💥

I buy black cars.. Or Silver. My last 6 cars were Black, Silver, Black, Blue, Black, and Silver.

Lol hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Lol

That's basically how and why your microwave oven works! 😜

my many experiments over the years using my key fob and brain disprove your theory..

A.I.

Ik right RIGHT (pig noises) RigHT 😂

@@omarmouhssine9820 erm…

Race Rules 240 GT is made of paper bruh duh

9 out of 10 car manufacturers around the world already use robotic clay car model makers. they have been for over 10 years.

The issue is that it is impossibly hard to pull off in a factory. - The dimpling is dead simple to put into the sheet metal. The problem is painting. Almost all cars are filled and smoothed a bit and then primered. Then paint is added and the result is that any small variations like that look messy and dry at different rates resulting in a very bad look. You would have to make the car panels out of carbon fiber for it to really be reasonable to pull off, as it just needs some sanding and a clear coat.

I seen that episode, and recognized the photo too… how bout that lol

A car with golf ball dimples? You’re gonna need a DAMN big 9-iron to get it going in the morning!

@@plektosgaming Should work on the Cyber Truck since its stainless steel

be sure to yell "fore!!!" as you pass 😅@@chrismayer3919

nifty!

Eventually your VW fob will break. Lol.

@@Sammasambuddha yeah you’re right but the car will break before the fob so fidget on!

The reference to the key fob had to do with the more modern keyless entry/start fobs.

In your case, it wasn’t just that the car was red, it’s the car itself

You might have tried driving at the speed limit?

This is not new. There has always been a low gear on Automatics.

@BISSEYSZ alot of owners are unaware of shifting manually.

@@stevemelanovich8288 Point.!

No way I am going to read all that

@@Bravestar186 Is reading hard for you?

@@Bravestar186doubt they honestly care… but the fact you took time to point out it’s too much for you… actually speaks volumes about you. No worries reading this… it’s more for future readers that CAN READ

Guess you’ll read at least some of your manual next time you get a car? Or this one! It has a lot of good information

me too. That looks like a lot of work made my skilled artists, not to mention all of that clay and other materials. that might be for a small one. random google says more like 200 - 600k for a full scale model.

I think they're referring to the cost of materials. By that method the Venus de Milo would be about $100.

i can open my infiniti's windows from home, just with a key fob. learnt it accidentally when tried to use remote start.

My Honda allows remote window opening (but not closing!)

I live on the west coast of the USA. Oh so many lane jumpers. And I went to Chicago recently.... WOW, I thought the west coast of the US was bad with lane jumpers.

I saw " I wish my wife was this dirty".

Same with my Jeep

Same with my 2020 Honda CR-V.

Same with my doughters ford F150

Unfortunately the measurement takes place before the fuel enters the hose.

@@JJSmith1100Doesn’t matter but the black hoses absorb heat possibly pushing the gas back into the dispenser. The pumps are under ground in the tanks.

Totally not true. The gas is stored in well insulated tanks in at the service station, so the gas temperature does not change throughout the day. It doesn't have time to change temperature until you have filled your car.

I hid things like an engagement ring there in my 71 super when i proposed.

I believe it was designed for skis, but yes you're right. Had a 2008 that also had 4 programmable buttons on the steering wheel. I set one to recycle inside air, that way if I spotted a dead skunk on the road I could shut off the outside air before the smell hit me lol

Not true with all makes. I own a GM product from 2007. The head restraints can only be removed with a special tool that costs $250, or a hacksaw.

This is a dangerous belief to spread since many vehicles require special tools or button presses to remove the headrest and even then it's not guaranteed to work since window glass is VERY hard to break with brute force. Do not waste the only seconds you may have on a myth. Get a keyring window punch for your keyring if you drive near water.

my infiniti's fob is exactly the same.

I got that to sort of, to put my truck in neutral all I have to do is press down the clutch petal then take it out of gear. No key needed at all. 😅

I agree, but I think part of the reason is that everybody immediately tries to get over to the 'fast lane' as soon as possible, leaving the right lane open!

@@61rampy65 Follow the express buses. They can see over traffic, break the wind and won't outbreak you. I learned not to follow Jaguars a long time ago.

@@UguysRnutsYou're a funny one! Where I live, there are like 5 busses for the whole city . And who wants to follow something that is breaking wind all the time?

100%. If this would be the case, black-and-yellow insects wouldn’t be black-and-yellow.

Actchewally, I disagree. Red is primally associated with blood and as such has been a subliminal "universal color(sic) for danger" since forever.

I don't remember the mpg but, they claimed a 14% gain in efficiency

I thought of those “aggressive “ strawberries and pizza sauce, lol.

Yes please 🙏🥺

That grocery store is a gathering place for idiots. I cannot tell you how many times I found some nitwit blocking the entire aisle while they stand their leisurely reading cans. Or have trouble deciding which milk to buy. I want to scream, "just get what you always get. That's what you're gonna do anyway!" A few months ago, I literally had a woman walk off with my nearly completed shopping cart while I had my head in the frozen foods freezer. Her cart was still there, but she was long gone and I had no idea which way she'd gone. Then as I'm getting the last few items on my list, her apparent husband says his wife has my cart. Like I need it back now? Idiots are literally overwhelming these United States, and if you disagree, you're likely one of them. A college degree does not mean you are smart. You are not done! You most likely don't know jack yet! A degree merely means you should have the correct box of tools for whatever you decide to "practice" as your life's work. Don't pick something you'll hate.

@@debtoralive4693 I agree 100% regarding idiots! OMG!!! Unfortunately in the US, Common Sense is a flower that does NOT grow in everyone's garden. I made up my own phrase for it several years ago. It is as follows: The F*cktard Apocalypse is upon us and in full swing. The Zombie Apocalypse should be a cake walk by comparison." They walk among us. A very dear of mine of 30 + years doesn't eat me anymore, but he sure does love that "looks like real meat, cooks like real meat and tastes like real meat" plant based stuff. I asked him, "Do you realize how psychotic that sounds? You won't eat real meat, but you'll buy the stuff "that looks, cooks and tastes like real meat". Think about how unbelievably twisted that sounds Vegetable Lecter...And what kind of Vegan looks for this crap in the RAW MEAT DEPARTMENT of the grocery store instead of the PRODUCE DEPARTMENT where all of the other vegetables live??? Seriously? It's creepy AF!" He just laughed and laughed and laughed...psycho. I also love it when a front end coordinator walks up to to let me know, "Ma'am, the self checkouts are open and available." I smile and always reply, "So they are! You probably don't realize I DON'T WORK HERE. I haven't been through orientation or training and have yet to receive my Employee Discount Card. How long do I have to wait until I get to be Employee of the month?" 😈 They never know how to respond. It's hilarious! A few weeks ago I was 3rd in line at the 20 items or less checkstand. I know it was for 20 items or less because the lighted sign above the cash register said so. I had several items, the gentleman in front of me 4 or 5 items...BUT...the woman first in line had an OVERFLOWING FULL CART. What I was thinking just jumped right of my mouth. I said, "I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess Math wasn't your strongest subject in school." Apparently, my inside voice was on break. I didn't mean to say that out loud, but there we were. If she had turned her head around any faster, it would popped and rolled around on the floor! She didn't say a word. She didn't have to, I no problem reading the subtitles on her face. 😁 It didn't help matters when the cashier started giggling, as well as the customer in front of me in addition to the 6 customer's behind me, were laughing their @$$ off. 🤣 ~ APRIL LIPKE

idk, we leave in the morning same time with my husband. He constantly changes lanes, while I stay in one. I ALWAYS lose sight of him, being stuck somewhere on the red light. Being used to that, now even if I get out of the driveway before him, I'd pull back clearing the way and say - just go. Maybe coz he's got a sports car, but then it means that he's going faster, which contradicts the 2nd theory here.

The same argument can be made about helmets
