The weather is getting nice and the classic cars are coming out. These cars put smiles on the faces of many when sharing the roadways, however, there are people who don't care what kind of car it is and they just want to get into traffic but keep in mind that the cars of yesteryear do not have the advantages of technology cars of today have. So think twice about pulling out in front of that 1968 Cougar or Impala because the brakes are not gonna stop them like the computerized ABS brakes cars for the past 2 or 3 decades have. They will lock up and require a far greater distance to come to a stop if they haven't hit you yet. Also keep in mind that you may get a surprise when tailgating that '71 Monte Carlo. It's not a guarantee that the brake lights are gonna be working 100% of the time and you aren't gonna know until you've wrecked a classic and you're to blame since you just rear ended them. Brake lights can have problems in new cars too but new cars have parts available to fix them after they've been hit. These cars aren't on the roads all the time and come out for special occasions while getting loads of thumbs up from other drivers and pedestrians. It's one of the few ways to go back in time so please keep a safe distance from them and respect them for the joy they bring to all young and old.
Ps. And, as always, watch out for motorcycles, too!!
