Start testDMV License Renewal Straight From the Source
NOV 04, 2024
I faced the problem of renewing my driver’s license much earlier than I might expect, since I
knew that in California (where I was living at the time) driver’s licenses were issued for 5 years.
But the fact is that I obtained the driver’s license while being an international student who was
studying at a local university. Thus, when applying for the driver’s license in a local DMV
office, I brought my international passport with I-94 form, I-20 form from the university and
other verifying documents, which stated that I was eligible to stay in the USA for 2 years. So,
since I obtained the driver’s license almost a year after my arrival in the United States, it was
issued for a year – until the date when my visa would expire.

Step-by-Step Guide on Driving Stick Shifts
OCT 24, 2024
Let’s fill the gap with Driver Start experts so that you can enjoy time-honored stick shifts like your fathers (or grandpas) did.
While the sales of manual cars in the USA have been decreasing significantly since the 90s, stick shifts are still popular in European and Asian countries, especially in developing economies, which is often explained by the price. Undeniably, vehicles with manual transmission are usually cheaper than automatics, but this is hardly the only reason for choosing a manual car. Experts and auto enthusiasts hold that driving a manual vehicle allows the driver to gain a completely new experience that is appreciated by drivers. They highlight the fact that many powerful sports cars come with manual transmissions and this is done for a reason – you can better feel the car and the speed while gaining full control over the gears. For the same reason, driving a manual car can be safer in winter with its slippery roads, but this also depends on your driving skills.

Have you already passed your DMV permit test? Congrats! Now you’ve got your well-deserved permit to cruise on public roads while mastering your driving skills and preparing for your driver's license test. But did you forget about something?
When learning your Driver’s Manual and taking your learner’s permit practice test, you might stumble across questions about learner’s permit suspension. Do you remember them?

5 Don’ts Shared by Auto Mechanics – Never Do This to Your Car
OCT 09, 2024
Ignoring your Check Engine Oil light is a sure way to ditch your car or, to be more exact, to make its engine break down.
Engine oil is a key factor in the lubrication system for your motor, which serves to aid the mechanical parts of the engine, reducing friction and providing cooling. Therefore, the untimely oil replacement leads to increased wear and heating up of the engine, negatively affecting its performance and resulting in its breakdown. And the engine repair or replacement involves heavy expenses amounting to thousands of dollars – is it worth the time and money saved by waiting to get your oil changed?

Can Lane Filtering Cut Down on Rear-Enders?
AUG 12, 2024
It seems that the legalization of lane filtering, also known as lane splitting, is one of the most cherished dreams of motorcycle operators in the United States. While California remains the only state where filtering is officially allowed since 2016, in some other states legalizing bills are already filed and many riders do believe that things are about to change.
Actually, lane filtering is a common practice in many Asian countries, where motorcycles are numerous and make up a significant part of the traffic. Large urban areas in India, Indonesia or Thailand are famous for their dense traffic, stuffed with all kinds of vehicles from bicycles and horse-drawn vehicles to trucks and buses. However, little attention is paid to the safety of lane filtering in those developing countries, and the practice is allowed for convenience rather than for safety reasons.
