I was always raised in such a way as to help others in need. I’ve been raising my kids to have the same beliefs. I firmly believe that if we help others, they’ll help others and the chain continues. It may not always continue, but I am an optimist and do believe some people continue…

The passion I have for road safety goes beyond driving a motor vehicle; it also includes walking, running, cycling, skateboarding and anything you can think of. Distracted driving is huge within our society so being aware of the dangers that can be sent our way is important. Even if you’re careful, something may go wrong…

I’ve been around kids regularly ever since I’ve been a kid. Some people would even say I’m still a kid. I’m hoping that’s a good thing. I also have a habit of watching people. I like to see how people in general cooperate and interact with others around them. To some people, they seem to…

As parents we tend to teach our kids many things as they’re growing up. We teach our kids manners, how to speak, how to dress themselves and many other things. To some parents they also feel it’s their duty to teach their kids how to drive. That’s always a bit of a concern in most…

I’ve written many times how busy we tend to be within our daily lives. To many people, they’re often running late and will take chances to get themselves to their destination on time; or as close to it as possible. How many times have you found yourself running late and took chances that you knew…

Remember when you were a kid and you did something wrong and blamed someone else? We did whatever we could to pass the blame over to our brother, sister or friend, even though we knew what we did was wrong. Why do we continue to do that as adults and especially as drivers? What are…

April 2013 marks 25 years as a driving instructor with Young Drivers of Canada. It’s quite a milestone in my eyes, but I never thought I would accomplish as much as a driving instructor as I’ve done thus far. When I began in 1988 I had a love of driving and of cars. I also…

What can you spare?

How many times have you been asked for spare change? Maybe you could spare a few minutes or do something in your spare time. What really is a spare? Is it a measure of time or is it something tangible? When it comes to driving, we should all have a spare…tire that is. When was…
