First, let’s start by acknowledging that the law prohibits all non-driving activity while you are behind the wheel and you should always practice safe driving practices. Having said this, it’s almost a given that most people have a special desire to enhance their driving experience with in-car gadgets. Here are 5 of our favorite must-haves:

1

Hands-free speaker or Bluetooth connectivity

We are all clear about the law.

In-car phone conversations are still going to happen, so how about ensuring that safety is still priority #1? You can easily connect your phone to your in-car speaker or Bluetooth connection and place your phone safely out of reach, while still being able to multitask a few phone conversations into your morning commute. see GADGETS on page 17A

According to Michelin North America, tires lose one PSI (pound-per-square-inch) of pressure for every 10 degrees the air temperature falls.

Also, Michelin says tires naturally lose one PSI per month. So, with no attention, a tire with 40 PSI at 80 degrees on June 1, will be at 30 PSI on November 1st if the temperature is 30 degrees. Also, a government study some years ago found a third of all drivers were unknowingly rolling around on already underinflated tires, which cold weather can leave visibly flat. Last winter, flat tires caused the

Whether you prefer your trusty standalone satellite navigation system, like Tom Tom or Garmin or you now rely on an in-phone app, like Google Maps or Waze, your global positioning service (GPS) go-to can help you time-manage your errands, giving travel time estimations and offer detour suggestions. GPS units and programs have become so much more efficient and accurate. The only time this really isn’t completely reliable is when you are driving in a remote place, without access to your phone network.

How many times do you find yourself with one line of battery power remaining on your phone and you don’t have a portable charger cable? Worse yet, seems no one in a hundred-mile vicinity has a charger cable for the phone or device you have? Buy a spare; keep it in the car. Charge up your phone or device while you are commuting. All charged up...you’ll be good to go all day.

Headrest DVD players

This is a must-have if you have pint-sized travelers in the backseat.

A portable headrest DVD player is a whole lot cheaper than having a hardwired unit installed after-market, either one will do though. Play CDs and DVDs for the little ones to make car rides a whole lot more enjoyable for everyone, especially on long car rides.

second highest number of AAA Northeast calls with 45,516.

AAA helps members get ready for the cold with free multi-point inspection events during Car Care Month where certified technicians will check cooling systems, batteries (which can lose 60 percent of their power in sub-freezing weather), tire pressure, belts, hoses, wipers, fluids and other items.

Robert Sinclair, Jr. is the manager of media relations for AAA Northeast.

Dash camera recorder

In an emergency, you need to be armed with this little doo-dad. A dash camera (cam) recorder takes a picture of the road and has a built-in microphone. Hoping you’ll never need it, but in case of a collision (or worse) you will be thankful that you have a record of what happened, to easily track the situation.

Since 1985, AAA has designated October as Car Care Month to remind drivers to prepare their vehicles for harsh winter weather before freezing temperatures cause inconvenience and possible damage to vehicles. Sub-freezing temperatures place tremendous stress on neglected vehicles.

Batteries die, tires deflate, radiators freeze, brakes seize, belts and hoses crack. The best time to give attention to those items is BEFORE the arrival of cold weather leaves you stranded and creates extra, unneeded expense and danger.

AAA recommends all drivers have a certified technician inspect and prepare their vehicles.

Last winter (November 2015 to March 2016) AAA Northeast rescued 148,827 stranded drivers due to preventable cold-weather-related items, with dead batteries number one with 80,793 calls. Being stranded in the cold is more than inconvenient, it can be dangerous. Most vehicles are 90 percent metal and will quickly drop to outdoor temperatures without a running engine to provide heat, most likely due to a dead battery. If this happens in a remote area, it can be life threatening. The cold can also thicken motor oil, making it difficult if not impossible to start a vehicle, especially if the battery is weak.
