High Schoolers Steal Car to Go to School
I don't know about you, but if I were going to steal a car, I don't think I'd bother going to school that day. I mean, if you're going to commit a felony, what's a little truancy on the side? I'd take that car and head for the beach or the mountains ...

Car Towed With Girl Inside - Tow Truck Operators Charged
Sometimes you get home and open up your package and find a little something extra in there. Sometimes it's a good thing, sometimes not. I think for tow truck drivers Jason Bryant and Derek Miller, what they found in the car they towed turned out to ...
Eleven-Year-Old Girl Saves Seven
Maddie McRae is being hailed a hero whose bravery saved the lives of seven people. After heavy rains washed out a section of roadway, two vehicles, including the one she was riding in with her mother and two siblings, ended up in the river. "I knew ...
Ford planning a car parents will love
All I can say is that I'm sure glad they didn't have this system when I was a teenager. Ford is introducing a system that allows parents to control a vehicle's maximum speed, limit the radio volume, and even ensure that seatbelts are worn. All of ...
Heated seats not so good for wanna-be dads
Most machinery works best when kept cool, be it mechanical, electronic, or even biological. Your car's engine has a cooling system that's pretty darn important (he writes with an experienced air) and your computers really belong in an air-conditioned ...
Sixteen-year-old converts pickup to electric
Auto shop was not an option at my high school, which is probably for the best. Bad things happen when I try to do anything more complicated than check the oil on a car. That isn't the case, apparently, for Andrew Angelloti who, at the tender age of ...
The Auto Show 2007
On the last day of November, which happened to be my birthday, I picked Jared up early from school (his class had been on a field trip all day and I didn't think they get much learning done in that last hour) and we hopped on the streetcar to go ...Changing your oil -- so easy, an eleven-year-old can do it
I'm not good with mechanical things. I mean, I understand the concepts behind the internal combustion engine. I've seen the drawings in the manuals. I get it. Really. But when I pop the hood and look inside the engine compartment, it doesn't look ...What do you look for in a family vehicle?
A while back, it seemed like the only thing that mattered about a new car was the number of cupholders it had. You could have made a vehicle that seated ten, got a hundred miles to the gallon, and handled like a Ferrari, but if it didn't have at ...
Would you buy a commuter car?
The other day, I came across a video for the Vandenbrink Carver (now called the VentureOne) which looked absolutely awesome -- and would make a great commuter car. This weekend, I was at the Vintage Computer Festival, held at the Computer History ...
Driver's ed: homeschool or lessons?
Rachel was watching Grand Canyon (a great movie, but difficult to watch) and I came into the room as Kevin Kline was teaching his son to drive. She said to me, "that'll be you, in ten years." Jared will be eligible for his learner's permit in just ...
Make your own speed trap
Let's face it. Nobody likes getting a speeding ticket. Sometimes, however, it seems that people need some sort of wake-up call to get them to slow down when there are kids around. One guy did it by putting up life-size cardboard cut-outs of his kids. ...Do these 'Slow' figures really work?
At some point in your travels, you have probably seen one of these little yellow plastic guys. Holding a red flag, he reminds you to slow down because there are kids nearby. When I see one, I automatically take my foot off the gas and play closer ...
DVD Players can be deadly
We made it to Disneyland and back without resorting to the use of a DVD player in the car, although we did have one with us just in case. We did the same going to Calistoga recently and to Yosemite last year. Personally, I would rather the kids look ...
Haynes' teenager manual
If you own a classic Land Rover, the chances are you own an oil-stained, ragged old copy of the relevant Haynes manual. While nowhere near as good as the official Land Rover shop manuals, they are significantly cheaper. For almost any vehicle you ...
