Hey Team Max, This is your Uncle Max here with another quick and dirty, Done is Better than Perfect video. This one is about how to jumpstart your car without getting killed, and a clever way to remember how to hook up the cables correctly.  

Stay tuned for more tips on vehicle & highway safety, expedient vehicle repairs, How to properly equip your vehicle for emergencies, vehicle self recovery (getting unstuck) & how to not get stuck in the first place, and great driving tips for On and Offroad.  All this, to keep you safe, and help you get back to, or get out of Dodge, depending on the circumstance.  This, and a whole bunch more, to help you live a more provident living and self-reliant life, and be prepared to handle most of life’s little or big disasters & challenges with greater ease and confidence!

I just had to jumpstart a motorhome today, and I realized that this cable that I have is fantastic and not very expensive, and others might want to know about it.  When I use it, it's very handy when I notice a stranded motorist on the side of the road with their hood up, and I pull over and back up to them. If they needed help starting the vehicle and their battery was weak, I can hook this up to the front of my car, and run it all the way back to the front of their car, without having to try and turn around on a dangerous, busy highway.  Highway Patrol Troopers, emergency vehicles, maintenance vehicles, and regular citizens get hit by cars on the shoulder of the road all the time.   

We want to avoid doing that to others, and avoid others doing that to us.  This jumper cable that I found years ago is a great way to help make it easier and safer to help stranded motorists, which is something that we would hope others would do for us in our time of need; Golden Rule!
