This we can't do!

Did you see the news piece about the Mac truck that got stuck
off a highway shoulder?  When emergency responders arrived on the scene
the problem became quite apparent, seems the cargo in this truck
was three elephants!

.......and NO we don't have the equipment to tow a mac truck
containing three elephants!

Unfortunately I couldn't find a follow up to this story
this morning so I'm not exactly sure what the ending is.

Not to drone on

Not to drone on about drones..............but, did you see that the FAA
gave the green light to Amazon for testing drones to deliver packages?


This will open the door for so many other industries
that can use this technology.  First Responders come to mind, 
of which Tow Truck companies are part of this group.

So, who exactly coordinates all these flying drones in our air space
from a multitude of industries?  
What's good for the goose is good for the gander-
if Amazon can use this technology then so can
every other big business entity.  Don't you think?

Not that I have any insight whatsoever into the specifics of "how" and
"why".........but my imagination has run a mock!

Why use drones for shipping?
Doesn't this by-pass UPS, FedEx and the US Post Office?
Is that a good thing?

So when you place an order with Amazon are you
agreeing to having your picture taken when an item is
delivered.  I'm assuming that's one of the perks for Amazon in
using drone technology.  Proactive loss prevention for Amazon, 
invasion of privacy for the common folk.

.....and, does the Drone ring your door bell or knock on the door? hum

Well, keeping my eye on this trend and of course
this is all my own personal opinion.

Hands Free, Not Risk Free

Every morning I get in my brand new 2015 vehicle, put the key in the ignition and the very next thing
that happens is that my car links up with my cell phone.  This is bluetooth technology, something
that until very recently was foreign to me....ok, so I'm a little behind the times.

The buttons to answer the phone, hang up the phone and control the volume are
on my steering wheel.  It didn't take me long to realize that accessing these buttons
could be hazardous.  Well, anytime that you're mentally distracted or remove your eyes
from the road, let's face it you're distracted.

Of course AAA has done a report about this, here is the article:


For me, I have to say that there are many times I don't answer the phone
while driving, even with hands free capabilities. 

 Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.
Use common sense while on the road for your safety and the safety of others.

Keeping you safe on the road.

AAA Diagnostics Center

Well this is a niffty tool to access!

AAA Diagnostics Center:  INFO

Exactly what is that noise you're hearing in your car?

One of my all time favorite commercials is the one where
people are making sounds to describe the noise their
vehicle is making.........because it's so true!

Of course by the time you get in to see the mechanic, well
they can't hear the noise that you do!

Checkout the diagnostics page maybe it
could help solve your problem.
