Driving a go kart is typically a safe activity, but you may accidentally crash. To reduce your risk of getting injured, always put on your helmet before you drive the go kart. Additionally, wear thicker clothing, like long sleeves and pants. This will help you avoid getting bumps and scrapes. If you're renting a go kart at a commercial track, they'll typically lend you a helmet to protect your head. Adjust yourself in the seat until you feel like you can comfortably hold the steering wheel and reach the pedals. Press your back against the seat rest and buckle your seat belt. This will keep you securely in the seat. If you're a child, ask an adult to make sure you're not sliding around in the seat. This will help you stay safe as you're driving the kart. You need to hold the steering wheel with both hands because most go karts don’t have power steering, which makes it hard to turn a kart with one hand. The best way to control the kart is to grip the steering wheel in the same spot on each side. Mirror your grip on each side so you can drive the cart safely. The ideal grips for driving a go kart are the same as the grip you might use to drive a car. For instance, think of the steering wheel as a clock face and grip the steering wheel at “2 and 10” or “3 and 9.” When it’s time to go, push down on the accelerator pedal that’s on the right side of your go kart. Don’t slam down on the pedal, however. Instead, slowly press down to gradually increase your speed. Push down more to increase your speed or let up to decrease your speed without having to brake.  The accelerator may be colored green to help you remember it’s to go. If you’re driving a model that has the pedals next to each other, use the same foot to press either the accelerator or the brake. This makes it harder for you to accidentally press both at the same time. When you’re ready to stop the go kart, push down on the brake with your left foot. Press lightly to slow down, or push the brake all the way down to come to a complete stop. The brake pedal might be red to signal that it’s to stop. Pushing both pedals at the same time will make the go kart drive erratically and make a weird noise. Additionally, some go kart models will shut down if you push the pedals at the same time. Be careful that you don’t push down on both pedals. Most go kart models have the pedals split on either side of the go kart, so you’ll likely have to use your right foot for the accelerator pedal and your left foot for the brake. Going through turns is the trickiest part of driving a go kart. Not only can turns slow you down, they can also cause you to spin out if you go into them too fast. Gently press your brake pedal as you approach a turn while you’re still on the straight. Turn the wheel of the go kart in the direction you want to turn. Then, press the accelerator as you come out of the loop to speed back up. Try to gain distance on the straights, not the curves.

One-sentence summary -- Wear a helmet and thick clothing to protect you from injury. Sit comfortably with your back against the seat. Hold the steering wheel in the same position on each side. Press the accelerator pedal on the right side to make the kart go. Use the brake pedal on the left side to stop the go kart. Push either the accelerator or the brake, but not both at the same time. Enter turns slowly and exit them going fast.

Q: Buying a car that has been repossessed by the bank can sometimes save you between 25 and 40% of the car’s cost. Keep in mind that you cannot have a mechanic check these cars beforehand, so you may end up buying a lemon.

You can buy a used car from its former owner if you are willing to take on the paperwork yourself. You can usually save quite a bit of money this way.

Remember that when you buy a car from a private seller, you have no legal recourse if there is something wrong with the car. You are responsible for filling out the paperwork yourself.

Usually, the most reputable dealerships in a given area will be franchise dealerships and national chains like CarMax. A franchise dealership is a dealership with the sole license to sell new models of a certain make within a geographic territory, like "Smith GMC," or "Jones Cadillac."  Franchise dealerships always have an inventory of used cars they've acquired from trade-ins, so it's best to start there. After you've looked at franchise dealerships and national chains, try smaller dealerships who use bank/credit union financing, and sell higher mileage used cars. However, stay away from dealerships acting as their own lenders (buy here, pay here lots). Even though they might have some attractive sticker prices, they are notorious for selling lemons, concealing damage, and all sorts of other things.    Step 4.

Article: If it does not feel great in the store, don’t buy it. If it’s too tight that it makes you uncomfortable as you stand in the dressing room, it will only feel worse when you wear it out. Try on multiple dresses until you find one that feels good.  Try cotton blends, linen, or silk as these fabrics flatter curves by not sticking to the wrong places. When buying a dress online, always check reviews and see what other people say about comfort and fit. And it's best to buy from an online store that has an easy and free return policy so you can return it if you don't love it once it arrives. Darker colors are slimming because they hide wrinkles, bulges, and other indicators of fat. Colors like white or beige can make you look like you have more belly fat than you do because they actually highlight those lumps and wrinkles and draw attention to them. The key to creating an illusion of a slimmer body is elongation. Vertical stripes draw the eye up and down and make you appear tall and lean. Stick with narrowly-spaced thin stripes (like a pinstripe) for the best slimming effect. The wider the stripe, the wider it can make you look. Avoid wide, horizontal stripes. They draw the eye outward and can make you look wider than you actually are. If you do want to wear horizontal stripes, thin and narrowly-spaced stripes have the most slimming effect. The trick to finding a good print is selecting one that makes it difficult and unnatural for the eye to focus on any one part. The larger the print, the more it easily it draws the eye. Pair a small print with solid accessories and attention will be drawn away from the fabric of the dress and away from your midsection.
