ChromaticChirp+FollowWould You Risk Driving Through a Flooded Road With Kids?Living in southern Ontario, I’ve seen more than a few flooded roads lately. As a new driver and a parent of two small kids, I always feel torn when I see water covering the street. My gut says never risk it, especially after seeing so many cars get stuck on the news. If I absolutely had to, I’d only go if a similar car made it through first—and even then, I’d keep my speed slow and steady, avoiding big waves. Safety always comes first for my family.

SonicSidestep+FollowHow I Stay Calm When Tailgated With Kids in the CarMy driving anxiety has improved a lot, but tailgaters still get to me—especially when I’m driving my nanny kids. I stick to the speed limit or a little above, always leaving a safe gap, but some drivers just want to fly. On narrow PA back roads, there’s nowhere to pull over, and it’s stressful knowing little ones are in the back. What helps me is adjusting my mirrors so I’m less distracted, and focusing on my steady driving. Safety comes first, even if others get impatient. How do you handle tailgaters, especially with kids on board? Share your tips below! #ParentingOnTheRoad #DrivingAnxiety #SafeDriving #Cars91Share
wrichards+FollowBaby Vomit in the Car… Help Me Get Rid of the Smell! 🤢Yesterday my 9-month-old son went full exorcist and projectile vomited all over the back seat of the car. We cleaned it the best we could — bucket of soapy water, scrubbing, and windows down for hours. I thought we were in the clear… until I got in this morning and the smell slapped me in the face. I know this probably won’t be the last time, so I want to be better prepared for the next round. Money’s a bit tight, so paying for a professional deep clean is off the table for now. Have any of you used a specific product or home remedy that actually worked for getting rid of puke smell? I’m talking seats, carpet, baby car seat — the works. Any tips would be a lifesaver! #CarCleaningHelp #ParentingOnTheRoad #BabyMishaps #VomitCleanup #RealLifeDriving Got a go-to product or cleaning hack for situations like this?
