Here's another car secret that few people seem to know. That little lever on the left side of the steering wheel is a turn signal. You're welcome! ;)

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!

The head rests are adjustable, they also come out and are used to break the door glass in an emergency. There is a tiny triangle next to the fuel gauge, it points to the side of the car where the gas cap is. Your seat belt goes up and down at the top anchor point, if it is rubbing against your neck, try moving it up. The reason your blinker is blinking really fast is because there is a turn signal light bulb out.

1:20 love the content as always man but wanted to point out. It's not RFID. Many push button starts use rfid and some use nfc. But rfid is only extremely close range. Many cars key fobs use RF which use something called rolling codes. Which are codes sent accross a frequency that roll over making it harder for someone to intercept the frequency and gain access to your car. Same way garage door openers work. I've heard some cars use BLE packets for push button start but that is not something I can confirm. Anyways love the content as always and thank you!
One thing you missed - velocity, or speed, doesn't work like we intuitively think. Example; at 15 mph, it would take 4 hours to travel 60 miles. At 30 mph, 2 hours. At 60 mph, 1 hour. At 120 mph, 1/2 hour. Notice, in the first example, when speed was doubled from 15 to 30, it saved 2 hours. In the last example, the speed doubled by 60 mph, yet it saved only 1/2 hour. Bottom line is, when you're on your daily commute, going 75 instead of the posted 65, won't save very much time for the 10 or 15 miles you travel on the highway. You can figure it out mathematically, but the increase in fuel consumption, increase in tire wear and stress on your drive train just isn't worth the few minutes you save. Stay safe out there.

Bottom line- speed is fun. Sigh…I think speeding is a genetic problem.
In Europe, the lane on the right is used for driving, and the one on the left for overtaking only. Generally, you drive in the right lane and use the left one to overtake and get back to the right lane as soon as you complete overtaking. That way, the driving is much more efficient. If the road has only two lanes in one direction, at the uphill part there are 3 lanes; right for heavy vehicles, middle for passenger cars and the left for overtaking. Of course, there are a-holes here as well who simply go to the left lane and never go back to right unless they are forced to, but that is here more of an exception than a rule. But when I see the roads in the USA where people drive in whatever lane, that makes me nervous.

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.

The first one about holding the fob to the head: The head has nothing to do with it. Actually, the fats in the brain absorb radio waves more than anything else. What does help is raising the fob high up so the radio waves have a clearer sight than using it from the height of your hip. In other words: just holding it high up makes the trick work.
@BrandyBalloon
3 ай бұрын
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.

The truth is, the higher you hold your key fob in the air, the farther the radio wave coverage of its signal. It has nothing to do with water in your brain. Water actually absorbs radio waves. Water is a conductor of electricity but blocks radio waves. The classes in physics and electronics I took in high school come in handy sometimes.

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.
It's interesting that the lane changing study was done in Toronto, where there seem to be a very high proportion of lane jumping idiots. The majority of gridlock I have seen in Toronto happens on excellent roads with no accidents or other distractions, making it a great place to observe the phantom traffic jam effect. This also happens when tailgaters fail to intimidate the car ahead of them then jam on the brakes causing a chain of lost acceleration behind them. I was once pulled over for driving erratically 10 km under the speed limit when I was actually doing a pretty steady 5 km over. I asked the officer if her speed was fluctuating and then simply stated, "You were seven cars behind me, and you know how summation of deceleration works." You can't be both consistently slow and not. She thanked me for driving carefully and sent me on my way. She was polite about it, too, because this is Canada, eh.
I believe clay models will be practical for a pretty long time, except their construction will change from manual to robotic; a clay 3d printer puts down the initial clay, and CNC robots finish the shape, making them much less expensive to produce, and change for that matter.

Actually, the custom ‘paint jobs’ like the nyan cat example are less expensive than actual paint because it is actually just a vinyl wrap. Those can be reprinted and it actually can protect the original paint on your car!
The golf ball effect was tested by Myth Busters and it was actually much more fuel efficient. I think that is the car in the picture you showed that they used for the test. I would find it interesting to do the test with a car covered in Golf ball material.

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.

Note that fancy multi-stage paints are still worth it as they last 3-4 times longer than normal modern paint. So your mother who always gets that pearl white car also has a more practical reason as well. The car at ten years old still looks fancy and shiny. Often most cars have one special color that year along with pearl white, so DO get it if you can. It's well worth the extra $300-$500 it costs when it comes time to eventually sell it, and more if it's something you plan to keep forever, as rare colors are worth a lot more on classic cars.

Speaking of dirty cars I remember from the 6th grade of elementary school. We walked to school every day and joked every day when we passed a dirty car. This car was the dirtiest I have ever seen and it wasn't until about 4 months into school that someone wrote WASH ME on the car and we laughed and waited to see if the owner would wash it. Until someone added WASH ME 2X (twice). The problem is that this car is no longer in the driveway and we still don't know if he washed it. But it was fun while it lasted.🤣

Another tip most vehicle owners of the latest models (2023) don't know about their new Automatic transmission cars, is that they CAN downshift or upshift the transmission if needed.

There are usually a lever or switch on either side of the inner part of the steering wheel on the top or backside to do this.

well, for europe - or especially germany - the Gas in the morning ist the "expensivest" over the whole day - 'cause in the morning the most go to work, and that's why gas stations rise they'r prices here. a slight downfall is then to see at "high noon", and the "cheapest" prices can be archived in the night - where the prices can fall down (against the morning) down to 20ct/liter less, depending on the sort of gas / diesel. so, as a "non-european", you might get "flatly pulled over the table by yourself", when thinking "in the moring hour it might be the cheapest" - when you're taking a vacation in germany.

The metal posts that hold the headrest in the seat back are made specifically for this purpose.

Well hold up- white is by and far the most common car color. Followed by grey black beige. So. The idea red is pulled over in the top 2- means they’re pulled over way more than the average. So the cause may have something to do with the psychology of driver but it doesn’t take away from the idea they’re statistically pulled over at a higher rate. 🤷♂️ just saying
One of my habits is just stay in your line and go along. If it is slower, it's much slower. One of my favorite peeves is people who swing out to pass just as the traffic is speeding up again, such as at a merge. They end up in the left lane going the same speed as the right lane.

Re: morning gas, this only makes a difference if you fill the car all the way and your vapor recovery system is broken. What they are seeing is the car accepting less fuel into the tank before the pressure is too high and assume it's because the fuel/car is hot. Most smart people fill their cars about 2/3 to 3/4 the way, anyways, as overfilling causes its own extra problems. Knowing this, most pump manufacturers have their pumps set to stop filling when there still is about a gallon of space in the system. Me? I just dump 10 gallons in the tank at a time and drive it. Easy, no matter how old the cars is :)

I spent 15 years manufacturing alloy wheels for ROH. in the early 80s, one of our wheels was referred to, internally, as The Clay Model, including the workshop drawings, because the original design came from a clay model of the wheel.
Well mate I believe that driving at a reasonable rate and generally being gentle on the go pedal for me at least it works and I often find that so many other vehicles just do not like following another at the legal limit or otherwise and just HAVE to overtake one and then find that they have just saved about 40 seconds in a arriving at the same point. Plus I have noticed when driving a low slung car as against say a SUV the speed in the SUV appears to be very slow even though the speedometer is showing the correct speed. In my Mazda 6 Sports Hatchback and because I am quite short speeds often look very dangerous when overtaking being that much closer to the road surface. Yes and my Mazda as I mentioned is also very streamlined and beautiful too!!

When it comes to Fast Lines @ 7:20 and changing lanes frequently when it appears one lane is moving faster than tbe other....you're exactly right! The more you go and forth between those lanes to try and to speed up the process because you don't have time for this crap; you've got stuff snd things to do...the more aggravated you become. The same can be said when you're standing line at the grocery store. The grocery store line is worse in one way.

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.
Well at least now I know why my Check Engine light ALWAYS kept turning back on after taking it to a mechanic to get checked out.
in addition too many states have winter blend and summer blend gas, winter blend gas creates less energy but atomizes better in colder temperatures so you might think you're saving money by fueling up when it's cold but in reality, if you're using winter blend gas you're actually fueling up more often and if you're constantly switching lanes to get ahead of other traffic in almost every state that's considered reckless driving

Actually, I had 4 different insurance companies charge me more when they found out my car is red. I was quoted a smaller amount, then they entered red as the color and the rate went up. They all explained that was precisely the reason. It has regular- nothing special about it, 1995 factory red paint. I told them I was planned to paint it a different color, and they said when, and if I did, the rate would go down. So that one is indeed true, at least for me, 10 years ago.

Here in northern Europe its more expensive to insure a black car reason being our winters are quite dark we only get a four to five hours of daylight in mid winter, insurance companies here regard Black cars as harder to see.

@Azureecosse I live in alaska. Yeah, 4-5 hours on sunlight. But it's always the damn white cars driving in snow with no lights on that's the problem. I swear, every fckin time its snowing, everyone with a white car is out there causing havoc. In the dark is way better. You can see the lights of everyone. If they are on. But they won't be able to see for themselves if they don't, so they are almost always on. But almost Newberry in the daylight. People suck. Ban white cars in the arctic I say!
Red is not the "universal color for danger". No one color is. The actual sign in nature for danger is simply being bright and hard to miss.

Actchewally, I disagree. Red is primally associated with blood and as such has been a subliminal "universal color(sic) for danger" since forever.
Many Mercedes R-Class owners are not aware that the rear quarter windows can be opened from the driver's seat. A smart feature if you have a dog in the car. 👍 And in some models, BMW has hidden the cup holder so well that it has never been found. 😉
And Honda hides traditional keys in their fobs too. The ones I’ve seen are part of the metal hook on the fob that connects to a key ring. There’s a little plastic slider, and the entire part releases. The key can also be used to pry the fob casing apart from the area that is uncovered by removing the hook, so the battery can be replaced by the user. It’s a genius design.

Much of this is very interesting. I have never seen that loop in the seatbelt. The stitching at the fixed end is designed to allow that bit of a stretch. This is why any seatbelt in use during a collision should be replaced with a new belt assembly. The EVAP has been fitted to cars starting in 1971. In winter I do not wash my car. In the autumn the car gets washed and waxed, then oil sprayed. The car does not get washed until spring so salt stays on the wax and away from the paint.

Hate to burst your bubble but the entire undercarriage is covered with salt all Winter. This includes suspension, exhaust system, bottom of engine including the starter, wiring harness, trans, etc. I’ve seen corrosion destroy brake & suspension bolts from rust attacking the metal. Beware if you keep your cars long time. Rust destroys everything.

Hello Be Amazed Fam!
Myth Busters Golfball car!!! Also, a steady, non-blinking check-engine light usually has something to do with the car’s emissions output. Not something to worry too much about while you’re cruising down the highway; however, a blinking check-engine light is far more concerning. This means there’s an immediate problem and it needs to be fixed right away!
My car has a loop on the driver's seatbelt, but it performs more like the button showed later in this video's segment. The other seatbelts have the loop too, but I think it serves a dual purpose by acting as the Energy Management Loop, but also keeping the buckle held in place while seatbelts are unfastened. But the driver's seatbelt look looks the same at first glance, but if you look closely, it's a seperate piece of fabric sewn on, while the other sestbelts are actually the same stretch of fabric sewn into a loop. It's a tiny bit of attention to detail that kind of went unnoticed until I saw this video and went out to examine the loop in my car. (I sometimes fiddle with it while in traffic)
I personally found out that if you barely hold the gas pump handle above where it starts to pump gas you'll get more gas liquid and less gas fumes

Even though I already knew everything in this video, it was still pretty awesome. For those who don't fix their own cars or aren't as car savvy as I am, these things would probably amaze most people. Also something else to know about the evap system, is that over filling the gas tank can ruin the evap system on some modern cars. Squeezing every last drop of fuel you can into the gas tank is not recommended. When the nozzle stops, the tank is full.

I can attest that in many Florida locations, prices DROP in the late evening and increase in the morning. I was driving one of my employees home one day, and as we passed multiple gas stations we did what most Americans do -- complain about gas prices. Then, my employee turned to me and said, "The trick is to buy gas after 7 PM (or later), not in the morning on the way to work." I thought he was full of it, but he was adamant that prices in his area went down after the evening rush hour. I'm a "data-centric" kind of guy. I drive past 6 gas stations with large electronic displays, so I started keeping track of what prices were at different times of the day over a 6 month period. Well, I was humbled -- he was right. Generally speaking, prices went DOWN after evening rush hour (generally after 7 PM) anywhere from $0.03 to as much as $0.45, only to increase in the morning. I'm not asking anyone to take this on faith or my word alone -- just open your eyes and keep an eye out for prices at your local gas stations' prices in the morning and after evening rush hour. Keep an eye out for morning gas prices along your commute, then-- if you're out after 7 PM -- look at those prices again, looking for a difference in pricing. Your local gas dealers may be playing this pricing game -- and you could discover a way to save money.
There's another thing we know... So you went to turn on your lights and you noticed one of them isn't lighting up, what do you do? Well your first instinct is to buy a new bulb, but don't. There are some cases where the bulb has a lose contact due to vibrations. Before you decide to buy, give it a slap. In some cases it will light up, in some it doesn't. If it doesn't work try resitting them. This will save you some money.
Seatbelts can save you and they can kill you. I had 2 close friends that swore by seatbelts and both got killed wearing seatbelts. One would have made no difference. The other one could have been saved had he not been wearing one. The best way to drive is to pull your head out of your rear end and pay attention to your driving and your surroundings . Look out for the other guys and animals. Obey the simple driving laws.

That lane changing depends on traffic rules of the state you are in. In Europe, there are generally only two or three lanes on highways (in one direction), with leftmost left for chasers. Though jams may happen: either two trucks try to get before the other resulting in traffic jam or accidents.
That was fun to watch. Thanks a lot.
I would like to point out and I'm sure somebody else may have said this but getting gas in the morning is more than just the science behind heat and liquid. When you get gas during the day there's been hundreds of other people using which stirs up the gas along with any debris that happens to be in the tank meaning you're getting a bit more than just gas in those gallons. Since there are much fewer people getting gas in the middle of the night most debris settles to the bottom making a tiny bit more gas for you. Not really enough extra to worry about saving money but certainly when you think about how often you get gas and the fact that the debris has a tendency to stay in your tank. So while technically getting gas in the morning doesn't really save money on gas it would probably keep your cars gas tank a lot cleaner allowing you to fill it up more when you do have money for a full tank. Along with saving money on cleaning it (which you really should be doing at least once a year)
Actually the car key inside you fob depends on the car and the fob itself sometimes it might be the fob battery instead of the keys
