?One of the secrets to long life (when it comes to your tires, anyway) is regular tire rotations. By treating your vehicle to this essential bit of maintenance from time to time, you can get a lot more out of your tires. This not only helps you save money and avoid premature tire replacements, but it helps your car operate in a safer, more efficient way as well.

So, what is a tire rotation and how often do you need to schedule one?

?It can be easy to ignore your vehicle's tires, but giving them the attention and care they need has a huge effect on how well they perform. Having good tires means that your vehicle can run more efficiently, find traction more easily, and slow down or stop in an emergency more effectively. Similar to how wearing shoes with worn tread makes you more likely to slip when you walk on a slippery surface, driving a car with worn tires makes you more likely to run into trouble when road conditions are less than perfect.

If you are currently following the old oil change interval of every 3,000 miles, then it is likely that you are actually replacing your engine's oil far too often and costing yourself money. How do you determine an appropriate oil change interval for your vehicle?

Your car's owner's manual is usually a good place to start. Based on your car and your driving habits, your owner's manual will provide two different recommendations that you can choose from. Getting under the hood and doing things the old-fashioned way is a little more accurate.

Have you ever wondered what you are supposed to do when you notice emergency crews working on the side of the roadway? Some drivers will speed on past as though the roadside workers were not even there while other drivers politely slow down and change lanes. But are there any laws that govern this situation?

Actually, there are. They are called "Move Over" laws and they are enforced in all 50 states. Those drivers who politely slow down and move over to give workers along the roadside more room are not only being courteous, but they are also obeying the…
