Never Leave Children In The Car!

Have you ever left your baby for a moment in the car for some reason? Should not do that. Because it turns out, the air in the vehicle risk 2 times more dangerous.

Why is that? Reported by globalnews.ca, in The Guardian's article, British scientists describe the vehicle as a box that picks up toxic gases from the outside, even though the car is off. The reason is because the air from the outside is carried in while you are on the way.

According to David King of the British Lung Foundation, a child left in a vehicle and sitting in a rear passenger seat is at greater risk of being threatened, as outside air enters the rear of the car.

In addition, outside air pollution into the car can affect the health of the baby, because his body is still vulnerable to air pollution. In fact, it can cause shortness of breath until it ends with death.

Then where does the air-air entry? According to one student at the University of Toronto, Miriam Diamond wall between the car engine with the interior is not as thick as people think, to cause the outside air is drawn into the vehicle through the emission.

To close the window of the vehicle alone is not enough, then the baby must be invited out to breathe fresh air and avoid pollution in the car. And if necessary, you can use hybrid cars or electric vehicles to reduce the possibility of pollution from outside into the car.

Dangerous Effect If Saving Hairspray In The Car

For those who like to leave spray cans in the car with outside temperatures that are very hot due to blazing eyes of the day, you should be careful. Because the spray cans inside a hot vehicle can explode and glide like bullets fired from a gun.

Vehicle insurance parties are ready to replace the damage to the window glass of his car, but the woman prefers to pay for all his own mistakes. It also becomes a lesson for you otolovers to not leave spray cans in the car in hot weather.

11 Japanese Company Builds Hydrogen Station for Cars

Tokyo - 11 Large Japanese companies, ranging from Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Idemitsu and other companies signed a cooperative agreement to build large-scale hydrogen filling stations.

The 11 major Japanese companies are Toyota Motor Corporation, Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., Honda Motor Co., Ltd., JXTG Nippon Oil & Energy, Idemitsu Kosan Co., Ltd., Iwatani Corporation, Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd., Toho Gas Co., Ltd., Air Liquide Japan Ltd., Toyota Tsusho Corporation and Development Bank of Japan Inc.

With the memorandum of understanding, these companies are increasingly accelerating the construction of hydrogen stations. Japan itself targets to have 160 hydrogen charging stations and 40,000 units of hydrogen vehicles in Japan in fiscal year 2020.

Later, the 11 companies will form a new company by 2017. The company will take care of all sorts of things about the construction of hydrogen stations.

Hydrogen car is considered as one of the alternative environmentally friendly cars. When other green cars such as electric cars are considered too difficult to commercialize, hydrogen cars are considered more easily developed.

Set Your Headrest Properly

Headrest on the car is not just for accessories. Moreover, it also includes safety components, when the car suffered a collision because it can reduce the severe pressure on the neck.
Headrest works when the car is hit from behind. Instantly the head will also head towards the rear as well, and the headrest is reduced to a broken neck. Headrest should fit the head of the back, with a distance that is not too far, meaning that the position of the head can not go forward, or can be said upright head.
If adjustment of headrests also not too high and low, or even removed. Of course the negative effect make neck have great potential of serious injury.
Quote Consumerreports.org, the topmost position of the headrest is parallel to the head, if this component can achieve it. If not, the tip of the headrest is aligned with the last part of the ear. The distance between the head and the back as much as possible no more than 4 inches.

Code of Speed Limits for Motorcycles Tires

Tires are an important aspect of the vehicle. It is the only part in direct contact with the asphalt or other roads. Therefore, users should be well aware of the specifications.
One specification that must be known is how much the speed limit of a tire. This information can be known by looking at the existing letter code on the tire wall. In the tire wall we can also know the code of the compound to the direction of rotation.
Satoshi Akatsuka, Head of Product Development of IRC Japan, said that motor sport or motorcycle with high tire code generally "H". H means the maximum limit of the tire is 210 km / h and digeber continuously for one full hour.
"H rated is a high performance tire, while Z rated is ultra high performance.This is the classification of radial tires," said Akatsuka.
In addition to H and J, there are several other ratings that become the maximum limit of tire speed. In total there are 15 ratings that have been set internationally. The "Moped" rating as the lowest rating, for example, shows that the maximum limit of motor speed that the tire can tolerate in an hour is 50 km / h.
While the highest rating is ZR. This means the tire can tolerate speeds of up to 240 km / h in an hour.
The implication of passing this boundary is that the tire can blow because it is not strong enough to retain heat from friction from high speed.
Here's a list of tire ratings with full maximum limits (in km / h):
-Moped: 50-J: 100
-K: 110
-L: 120-M: 130-P: 150-Q: 160-R: 170-S: 180-T: 190-U: 200-H: 210-V: 240-W: 270-ZR: more than 240

Brake Lights Placed in Biker Helmet

Rear lights and brake lights is one of important things in motorcycle. But, taillights and brake lights in a motorcycle usually located too far down.

In the car, the brake lights are positioned a little higher has been applied. Thus, two or more vehicles behind can see where the vehicle is wearing the brakes on the high place.

Now, there is a solution that offers motorcycle brake lights eye level riders in tow. Brake lights that can be placed at the biker's helmet.

Brake Free could be a solution. Free Brake is LED lamps that can be placed in the back of the helmet.

These lights do not require wiring. Free Brake uses sensors to detect every time the motor speed slows down either due to engine brake, the replacement tooth or braking.

Use Nitrogen for Your Tires

The advantages of nitrogen than ordinary air/oxygen is molecular size. Nitrogen molecules larger than normal oxygen. The implication, with the larger molecules than ordinary air, nitrogen will be more difficult to pass through a layer of the actual tire is porous, though not visible to the naked eye.
With no easy to pass through, then nitrogen can prevent excessive air pressure changes, either deflate or inflate. It applies both tubeless tires or tubetype that both are equally porous.
Besides being easy to get out, the pressure is also not easy to change due to temperature nitrogen is more stable than oxygen.
Nitrogen also can keep the temperature inside the tire is more stable, not easily changed. Generally, the temperature of the tire increases as long trips. But if the increase is more stable nitrogen use.
Recently, nitrogen can prevent rust or corrosion on the rim. This is due to the character of the nitrogen itself which actually is a dry gas, or no water at all elements (cause rust).
