Re: WIVES TAKE NOTE: A proper day's cooking!
It has long been my opinion that anyone wishing to obtain a driver's license should have to demonstrate the ability to locate the basic parts of their car - motor, transmission, battery, carburetor, radiator, know how to check fluid levels and where to add fluids, change the bulbs and fuses, jump-start a dead battery, and change a tire. I'm not saying that everyone who wishes to drive should have to be a certified mechanic, but if you're going to pilot a machine weighing a couple of tons and capable of attaining speeds of 100 mph, you should know at least the basics of how it works, and what to do when something goes wrong.
There would be a lot less women stranded and rendered helpless by something as simple as a flat tire.

But trust me its not that complicated after all really! 
You just need to learn a little thats all, but the mechanism of a car is really not that complex, you just need to know what part is which and what they do and the you can find the problem without too much of a fuss!
Changing tires is real easy too once you how to do it! I know how to do many repairs on cars, of course I'm not a mechanic so I can't solve EVERYTHING, but my father taught me the basics and essentials to make sure I would know how to fix things if I ever I got stuck somewhere along the road on my own! Better to be on the safe side than have regrets later!
