Car Secrets Only The Most Experienced Drivers Know

Here's another car secret that few people seem to know. That little lever on the left side of the steering wheel is a turn signal. You're welcome! ;)

The head rests are adjustable, they also come out and are used to break the door glass in an emergency. There is a tiny triangle next to the fuel gauge, it points to the side of the car where the gas cap is. Your seat belt goes up and down at the top anchor point, if it is rubbing against your neck, try moving it up. The reason your blinker is blinking really fast is because there is a turn signal light bulb out.

1:20 love the content as always man but wanted to point out. It's not RFID. Many push button starts use rfid and some use nfc. But rfid is only extremely close range. Many cars key fobs use RF which use something called rolling codes. Which are codes sent accross a frequency that roll over making it harder for someone to intercept the frequency and gain access to your car. Same way garage door openers work. I've heard some cars use BLE packets for push button start but that is not something I can confirm. Anyways love the content as always and thank you!

In Europe, the lane on the right is used for driving, and the one on the left for overtaking only. Generally, you drive in the right lane and use the left one to overtake and get back to the right lane as soon as you complete overtaking. That way, the driving is much more efficient. If the road has only two lanes in one direction, at the uphill part there are 3 lanes; right for heavy vehicles, middle for passenger cars and the left for overtaking. Of course, there are a-holes here as well who simply go to the left lane and never go back to right unless they are forced to, but that is here more of an exception than a rule. But when I see the roads in the USA where people drive in whatever lane, that makes me nervous.

The first one about holding the fob to the head: The head has nothing to do with it. Actually, the fats in the brain absorb radio waves more than anything else. What does help is raising the fob high up so the radio waves have a clearer sight than using it from the height of your hip. In other words: just holding it high up makes the trick work.

I love all of the car jokes and puns throughout the video. Makes the video all the more interesting!

One thing you missed - velocity, or speed, doesn't work like we intuitively think. Example; at 15 mph, it would take 4 hours to travel 60 miles. At 30 mph, 2 hours. At 60 mph, 1 hour. At 120 mph, 1/2 hour. Notice, in the first example, when speed was doubled from 15 to 30, it saved 2 hours. In the last example, the speed doubled by 60 mph, yet it saved only 1/2 hour. Bottom line is, when you're on your daily commute, going 75 instead of the posted 65, won't save very much time for the 10 or 15 miles you travel on the highway. You can figure it out mathematically, but the increase in fuel consumption, increase in tire wear and stress on your drive train just isn't worth the few minutes you save. Stay safe out there.

Another banger,love the videos,so well edited

I enjoyed watching this video, I learned something today. I work on my vehicles regularly,yet I was not aware of the little tidbits. Interesting vid 👍🏻

18:15 - I actually think about motion parallax all the time when I'm in the car, remembering to look at the mountains and not the gravel has saved me from losing my lunch many times.

The truth is, the higher you hold your key fob in the air, the farther the radio wave coverage of its signal. It has nothing to do with water in your brain. Water actually absorbs radio waves. Water is a conductor of electricity but blocks radio waves. The classes in physics and electronics I took in high school come in handy sometimes.

Always enjoy your great videos. Thank you.

Be Amazed always gives the best secret info while making it enjoyable.👍

I really learn so much from this guy

I believe clay models will be practical for a pretty long time, except their construction will change from manual to robotic; a clay 3d printer puts down the initial clay, and CNC robots finish the shape, making them much less expensive to produce, and change for that matter.

Thank you, I am amazed watching these wonderful moments

Even though I don’t talk to him, I still feel Be Amazed is interacting with me while I watch.
