Petrol prices may not be fluctuating as wildly as in the days of old, but it’s always a good idea to find ways to save some money. Today, we’re going to look at some surefire ways you can save on petrol, and in the process, save some of your money for the upcoming holiday season. 

When we hear that people are sleeping at the wheel, we immediately think of the dangers of driving while sleepy. However, in Japan, this is more common than you would expect, with a slight twist. Surveys have shown that Japanese rental cars are often returned with zero mileage clocked, which is weird considering that cars are rented and expected to be driven. But the Japanese people are apparently using the cars for purposes other than driving. These activities include using the rental cars to catch up on some much needed rest, a private space to do some work or even to brush up on language skills.

It’s been proven that rainy conditions are directly associated with higher accident rates.
