You had a water landing?

Your friend is right in some sense ....when driving an automatic transmission car with no gears to change up or down. Yes Automatic transmission cars does have levers with D1, D2 or D3 but they can hardly be used for the engine brake effect

oyekanwahab:

there is need to tell people about this more,
lask week a guy in my area ram is car to a shop because of brake failure, and i was telling him that next time he would have just shift to lower gear and use engin brake to stop and he was like it not possible, that ones brake fail the car would automatically start accelerating by it self

Very nice and educative post..

Permit me to add some which I observed in Nigeria.

1) Don't think while walking or driving.. Stop somewhere first and clear your heads before hitting the roads.
A well dressed guy I saw one time almost got killed by a train. The guy was so lost in thought that he didn't hear the train horn. People around had to signal before he took to heels and narrowly escaped

2) Remove your earphones while walking for your own safety. It's better to have your sense of hearing working to your advantage than rely on luck.

3) Don't back on-coming vehicles, instead walk on the lane facing them incase of brake failure and the likes. So you can scamper to safety easily.

4) Beware of early morning/ late night rides.. Don't ask me why.
May we not have our hands, legs and head dismembered from our body. Amen!

Very true. Surprise you didn't mention - Allahu Akbar most popular they would want to hear.

DarkRebel69:
It's not enough to just know some verses of the Qu'rân. Hypothetically, an attacker – which in this case we've taken to be a fundamentalist moslem – would most likely punt forward common islamic prayers and await your rejoinder. It's less likely that he/she would ask you to recite a quranic verse.

So, in addition to the verses, one should also memorize the basic arabic responses to prayers and greetings; memorize the basic prayers themselves, and be acquainted with the fundamentals of Islam. For example you should know that moslems usually say "Sall Allahu alla-yi wa-sallam" (SAW) after every mention of Prophet Mohammed's name, which translates to: "May Allah's peace and blessings be upon him".

This is particularly useful if you live in or is planning a trip to zones torn apart by religious strife, specifically if islamic fundamentalists are at the nerve-centre of this religious strife.

What happens when you are using a car with auto gear?

LastMumu:
8. If a dog is going to attack you in open place then,

do not run, dog can catch you in no time( since it is open place).
do not look into its eyes( animals can sense fear).
do not show your back( showing back is a sign of fear).
grab a stick if possible. Stand straight and be in attack mode. Walk backwards slowly until you are out of attack zone(200 meters is dog’s attack zone).




9. If you notice you are being followed, Raise your head, and go slowly.

People tend to instinctively lower their head and increase their pace when they sense danger. However, you should do just the contrary: confidently raise your chin, and slow down.

Why? When you follow your first instinct, you become prey. Who or whatever is threatening you, slow down, raise your head, and look sideways to see the danger with your peripheral vision.



10. Suppose you rammed your car into an electric-pole and live current wires on your car then,

Do not panic. Your car tyres are made up of rubber and will work as an insulator. The metal surface of the car acts as a Faraday cage due to which the electric field inside the car is zero.
Do not step out of the vehicle,if you do so you will complete the circuit between wires and earth and you’ll be fried in no time.
Pick up the floor mats in you car and throw them on the ground where you could reach by jumping
Make sure you cover maximum area with mats
Open car door widely( roof top is preferable) then jump onto the mats which you placed earlier.
Make sure you remove two legs at once( keeping one leg inside may complete circuit).



Or you can just watch this demonstration video here on what to do if you find yourself in such situation.

Read this last week.. you copied it from Quora.

When you check into a hotel make sure to ask for & get acquainted with the emergency exits...you may need it when in trouble. And if possible don't stay lower than second floor or higher than fourth floor in high rise building hotel.. .you may be safer in case of attack or fire incidences.

Why is terrorism usually attributed to Muslims?

Why not tell them to learn Bible verses for terrorism sake ?

Does that mean that Muslims are terrorists by default?
