Remembering Car Checks? Just Think of FLOWER 🌸

If you ever struggle to remember the basic checks you should do before a drive, there's a handy little acronym for that: FLOWER — and yes, it’s as gentle as it sounds, even if your car isn’t. Here’s what it stands for: F = Fuel – Don’t start a trip on empty. L = Lights – Check headlights, indicators, and brake lights. O = Oil – Low oil can wreck your engine. W = Water – For coolant and windshield washer. E = Electrics – Make sure your battery and dashboard functions are working. R = Rubber – Tires (pressure and tread) and wipers. This simple memory trick comes from the AA, and it’s actually saved me from a few “oops” moments — like realizing my coolant was almost dry before a long trip. Do you have any driving acronyms or tips that help you stay on top of maintenance? #CarTips #DrivingChecklist #FLOWERCheck #CarCare #StaySafeOnTheRoad
