Today was supposed to be a chill day with my new car. I picked it up, drove home, and decided to relax inside with the AC and radio on. A few hours later, I tried to start the engine—nothing but a weird crackling sound. That’s when I realized I’d completely drained the battery. Total rookie mistake! After a mini panic and a few calls, I learned about jump starters and got help from a neighbor. At least I could close the windows and lock up. Now I’m waiting on a new battery and definitely won’t leave the car running like that again. Have you ever made a newbie car mistake? Share your story below! #DrivingLife #CarTroubles #NewDriver #Cars
