My co-worker did that with his 01 civic, he kept topping it off even though it was pissing coolant and making terrible noises. He asked me to look at it and it was blowing white smoke when he started it up, I told him to shut it off, pulled the dipstick and it was a healthy shade of green. I told him it needed a head gasket and a new radiator and to get it towed to a shop. He still drove it home

Seriously? Putting on a spare tire is pretty basic, everyone should know how to do that. There are step by step instructions in every owners manual for every car I've owned. I get not wanting to do it on the side of of a six lane highway, but if you're in the middle of nowhere are you really going to wait an hour for AAA to show up and do it for you? What if it's the zombie apocalypse? Do you walk in open zombie country or do you put the spare on? Because AAA dude is busy eating his family and your iphone is only good for throwing at zombies.

I live in an apartment complex and some of the vehicles in the parking lot scare me. There's a 90's Pontiac Sunbird that's always in front of my building that reeks of gasoline. I saw someone light up a smoke while walking near it and it made my butt pucker, it's been like this for months and it's driven daily. Then there's the minivan with tires so bald the threads are showing and rear end in a top hat ricer kid who's CV joints having been grinding for a month. Like clearly none of us are rich but drat people, either get it fixed or stop driving it! I never thought I'd miss mandatory vehicle safety inspections once a year after moving from VA to MD but the poo poo I've seen on the road boggles the mind.
