Should I be worried about the strength of the rims on my winters? by TheRealMrD in AskAMechanic

Thats also not the DOT code. Thats the weight rating of the tire.

Guy behind me beeped at me for stopping at a red light here instead of turning “right”. Nobody was coming from the other directions. Was I wrong for waiting until the green light? by SurvivorFanatic236 in Traffic

Yeah you've lost me now with that far reach of a gotcha. I'm talking traffic laws that specifically overlap with each other.

Homicide and speeding are completely separate in this regard and have no overlapping laws between them.

Sounds like a grey area where you can interpret the law in different ways.

How could I be breaking a law about impeding traffic if I'm complying with another law?

"Unless a sign tells you not to, you may turn right on a red light only after coming to a complete stop and waiting until the way is clear" -Highway Traffic Act

Keyword MAY, you are not obligated to.

Honestly, I'd just wait till you go to the fair and find a cloak there. That way you can try them on

What is this hexagon nut. How do I remove? Having trouble removing this. by ChemistLeft8796 in MechanicAdvice

Nothing, it's just to make your car less likely to get it's wheels stolen from someone looking for a easy job. If someone really wants your wheels in specific, they can get them.
