I recently replaced my catalytic converter but now my gas mileage is noticeably worse. Is that even possible?

If anything, replacing the catalytic converter should give the car better mileage. If mileage gets worse, something is clearly amiss.

Driveway

My neighbor keeps using my driveway to turn around multiple times a day, after I asked him not to. It's driving me crazy. Do I have any legal way to stop him?

If your neighbor keeps swinging into your driveway to turn around, you are not overreacting by finding it irritating. What looks like a harmless three-point turn can feel like a small invasion when it happens multiple times a day. The good news is that property law in many places does give homeowners tools to push back, but the exact answer depends heavily on where you live and what kind of rights may already exist over your driveway.

Car wash conversation in the driveway

My HOA says I can't wash my car in my own driveway. I don't trust the car wash, is that rule enforceable?

You pull out the hose, grab a bucket, and suddenly your HOA says no. That sounds petty, but the issue usually is not soap or spotless paint. It is stormwater runoff, and in many communities that brings HOA rules, city codes, and even state water regulations into the picture.

My friend says buying a used luxury car is a "steal," but I’m worried about costly repairs. Is it worth the risk?

A used luxury car can look like an incredible deal at first glance. Models that originally cost $60,000 or more can sometimes be found a few years later for the price of a new midsize sedan. That kind of depreciation is real, and it is one of the biggest reasons shoppers get tempted. But the lower sticker price does not automatically mean lower ownership costs.

Man getting ticket for texting

I was at a red light and used my phone to text my wife. A cop next to me pulled me over and gave me a ticket. How is that illegal if I wasn’t driving?

You’re stopped at a red light. The car isn’t moving. You quickly glance down, fire off a text to your wife, and look back up. Harmless, right? Then a few seconds later, you’re getting pulled over. You know that texting while driving is illegal—but you weren’t even driving?

I was pulled over for doing 60MPH in a 90MPH zone in bad conditions. I protested, but got a ticket. Why am I paying for being a safe driver?

Got ticketed for driving 60 MPH in a 90 MPH zone during bad weather? Here’s why “driving safe” can still get you pulled over, and how minimum speed, traffic flow, and road conditions really work.
