Why I Always Stop Before Turning Right on Red

The other day, I watched a driver roll right through a red light to make a right turn—no pause, just a quick glance. It reminded me how easy it is to forget that a red light always means stop, even if you’re turning right. I’ve made it a rule for myself: always come to a complete stop, check for traffic and pedestrians, and only then turn if it’s allowed. It’s not just about following the law—it’s about keeping everyone safe. Have you ever caught yourself rushing a right on red? Share your thoughts below! #DrivingSafety #RoadRules #StayAlert #Cars

One night working the drive-thru, I handed a customer their order and spotted a full-sized mannequin buckled into the passenger seat. At first, I thought it was a real person! Turns out, the driver used it for the carpool lane. It made me laugh, but also reminded me to always expect the unexpected on the job. If you work drive-thru, keep your cool and don’t jump to conclusions—sometimes, things aren’t what they seem! What’s the wildest thing you’ve seen in a customer’s car?

Survived a Near Head-On Collision—Still Shaken, Still Grateful

After 25 years and over a million miles on the road, I thought I’d seen it all—until today. I was stuck behind a slow driver for miles, finally got a chance to pass, and suddenly he sped up. Out of nowhere, a car turned into my lane, and I had nowhere to go. I had to make a split-second decision and forced the other car onto the shoulder to avoid a head-on crash. My wife said we missed disaster by inches. This shook me to my core. Please, always stay alert and never assume others will drive predictably.

What I Did After Finding a GPS Tracker in My Car

Last week, I discovered a GPS tracker hidden under my car seat. At first, I felt shocked and a bit scared—who would do this? After calming down, I checked with family and friends, but no one knew anything about it. I immediately contacted local authorities for advice and had a professional remove the device. If you ever find something suspicious in your car, don’t ignore it. Stay calm, document everything, and get help from professionals. Has this ever happened to you?

What To Do When Someone Reverses at a Red Light

Driving home this week, I saw something that really made me pause—a car in front of me started reversing at a red light. I could tell they’d pulled too far into the intersection, and thankfully, the car behind them also backed up, so there was no accident. It got me thinking: if I ever find myself in that situation, I’d keep a safe distance from the car ahead, always check my mirrors, and be ready to honk or flash my lights if needed.

What We Learned After Our Car Was Broken Into

Last night, my fiancé’s car was broken into and hotwired. When we checked the ignition, we found a strange piece left behind. At first, we weren’t sure if it was part of the car or something the thief used. After some research, we realized it was a tool used to bypass the ignition. If this ever happens to you, take photos and don’t touch anything until you talk to the police. It’s a scary experience, but sharing can help others stay alert. Has this ever happened to you?
