JimF-LowBari Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 (edited) Word of advice to all.... last 6 or so weeks been driving about twice a week for distances of 1-2 miles. This morning car would not start due to battery. Driving for a few minutes each time was not enough to allow the battery to recharge. 😫 Just got back from drive to local airport as had to drive 45 minutes to allow all the technology to completely reboot. At least it crapped out in the driveway. If there is thunder later it’s my former auto mechanic father looking down and beotching at me for not thinking about this... 🤬🤯 Edited May 8, 2020 by JimF-LowBari 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With my luck, I will get pulled over, ticketed for "non-essential travel", and then will not be able to restart my car. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sister and I were laughing about that. “Honest officer I’m rebooting my computer”. Had someone in county below me get written up for that. Lady who got pulled over said it was a mental health drive and she didn’t stop anywhere. She thought she was ok to drive for that and cop didn’t. Rule was unclear so judge dismissed. Originally pulled over for brake light out.. Years back battery died at supermarket. Walked mile and a half home with bags of perishables and called for a jump. Had to tell the guy to wait until I walked back. Edited May 8, 2020 by JimF-LowBari Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It cost $20, but it was very helpful at times. It was really convenient once when we had a snow storm and I saw that snow removal signs were posted in my area - and had very little time to shovel my car out on the road before the snow plows arrived (and towed your car away to the tune of $200). I turned the key only to hear the "click, click, click." I had roadside service with the manufacture, but when I called them the wait was 24 hours minimum.

I have one on my corvette since I don't get to drive it near as often as I should, especially this next two weeks as we deal with the semiannual Florida plague of Love Bugs. Disney Springs is opening next week, but only the non-Disney shops and restaurants initially. No news on the parks opening yet. there is strong talk now that the NBA will play out their season here at the ESPN Sports Complex, sans fans. cautiously optimistic - still unsure where this virus will take us.
