Tips from Dmytro, Auto Body Technician

As someone who disassembles crash-damaged vehicles daily, my best advice for car care is: don’t get into an accident.

Align your self-confidence with your actual driving skills.
Use winter tires in winter.
Buckle up—and ensure all passengers do too.
Be smooth and calm—sudden movements can lead to loss of control.
Follow the "If you can't see, don't go" rule.
Keep a safe distance.
Before braking—check your mirrors.
Ask yourself before overtaking: “Is it necessary? Is it safe? What will I gain?”
If ABS kicks in, press the brake harder.
Follow traffic rules and speed limits—they save lives.
Avoid phone use while driving. Even hands-free can distract your mind. Stop safely before calling.
