Over 3 Million Tickets Dismissed
I used to take my dog on the road with me when I toured. It made me feel safe, traveling with a pet. He was a small terrier mix and was a great traveling companion. But, once he began to bark, he couldn’t stop. One time, when I was doing a cross-country trip, I just…
I saw a brilliant public service announcement on the telly last night. It was all about driving responsibly by executing texting abstinence. In other words, refraining from texting while driving. The PSA, Stop Texts Stop Wrecks ( stoptextsstopwrecks.org ) stated a few cold, hard facts about the results and statics of texting while driving. They…
2014 started out with a bang. I received my first camera light ticket. In Dallas, they send you a bill with a photo of your vehicle and the license plate number and it is a $75 fine. There is also a link to their website where you can watch a video of the incident. I…
This year is coming to a close and I am pondering what I will put on my new years resolution list. Perhaps it would be a better idea to have someone else make my list for me. Perhaps another point of view with more honesty. But not a family member, they know me too well.…
Hooray for road trips! Some of my fondest memories are of taking a family trip, in the family car, through blinding snow to visit my Grandmother for Christmas Day. Our holiday travel was a five hour drive and I always had the back window of the car “reserved” as my traveling compartment. I was like…
The safety features in cars being manufactured today are off the head! And, in the very near future, automobiles will be much like the ones in the Jetsons. Heck, maybe even Astro will be able to drive you around. My sister has a new Mercedes with some amazing safety features. Of course there is the…
You have choices at Comedy Defensive Driving if you have been told by the court that you must attend a defensive driving course. In Texas, we offer both a classroom course, in many cities throughout the state, and an online course. The choice is yours, and we know that whichever one you choose, you will…
Well, I suppose the famous psychic, the late Sylvia Brown has already been replaced. I am going to start calling my web master “Sylvia Brown” or “Clair Voyant” (neither of which would he like since he’s a guy). This week’s blog topic “keep your car running in winter” could have been a premonition. We just…
The winter chill is in the air! Even in Texas, we’ve had freezing temperatures. So, make sure you have the proper tools to help with deicing your windshield. Just yesterday, I saw a road rage incident where one driver cut off another driver. The person who was cut off retaliated by throwing an entire strawberry…
The biggest myth about cars and those who drive them is that men are better drivers than women. I teach Comedy Defensive Driving classes. And, whenever a couple comes in together, I used to ask them who was the better driver. Now that I know from experience that asking a sensitive question like that just…
