Pelican Crossings are the crossings which are signal-controlled crossings where flashing amber follows the red ‘Stop’ light.

After the yellow/amber lights start flashing, watch out for people making a last-minute dash.

As a driver, you MUST give way to any pedestrians on the crossing, when the amber light is flashing. If the amber light is flashing and there are no pedestrians on the crossing, you may proceed with caution. After amber light flashing will be green light which is normal driver’s indicator for driving.

1. Rinse off the car with a hose to remove any loose dirt

2. Mix some car shampoo in warm water. Don’t use other detergents as they may wash off any wax which is protecting the paintwork

3. Dip a soft sponge or a special washing mitt in the soapy water. Begin washing at the top of the car and work your way down

4. Rinse the sponge or mitt with a hose before you put it back in the soapy water – you don’t want to mix in dirt and grit

5. Once the whole car has been cleaned, rinse it with the hose

6. Dry the car with a clean cloth or chamois leather to prevent any streaky drying marks

7. For a professional finish, apply a thin layer of wax (optional)

Not every Toyota Corolla 2001-2007 flash drive adapter fits year of 2004. Finally found this one which worked: Connects2 CTATYUSB001 Car accessory. It has both usb and aux outputs for flash drive with mp3 or iphone audio out only.

Tip: My car registered on 03/2004, while installing, at the back of the radio was not empty slot but on the cable itself was additional white “in” connector which was matching 1:1 to the white connector on the mp3 accessory i bought, so i plugged it there.

Unlike america in the uk youve gotta get the insurance for your self for a specific car. You have to have insurance that actually covers the car. Otherwise, the car isnt insured.

Method 1:
Often if you have fully comprehensive insurance on an existing car you are covered to drive other cars.
You could buy a temporary cover https://www.rac.co.uk/insurance/test-drive-insurance

Method 2:
1. Go to dealer and find a car you want to buy
2. Write down it’s registration number
3. Go to insurance company website, write registration number and when did you buy the car..click on not bought yet. Thats how you check the insurance before buying the car.
4. (Optional) Keep in mind, some car sellers give you free 7 days of car insurance for you so you can drive it home straight way and get the insurance the next day or whatever (mainly on new cars). Its always worth asking if the garage does that.
