car seat headrest
Picture this, you're waiting at the red light in your car, when you get rear-ended by the car behind you. Perhaps it was the adrenalin in that moment, but you felt no worse before the collision and you go on with you life. Few weeks in, you have this niggling, persistent pain in your neck, and an excruciating headache to go with it. A visit to the clinic tells you that you've had a whiplash injury. A what? Whiplash, what's that? According to WebMD, whiplash is simply an "injury to the neck." If
Cuba bayangkan anda sedang berhenti di lampu isyarat merah. Kemudian, kereta anda dirempuh dari belakang. Ketika itu mungkin anda hanya mengalami kejutan emosi dan mental. Tetapi setelah beberapa hari, anda mungkin akan mengalami rasa tidak selesa seperti sakit kepala dan sakit tengkuk. Sewaktu periksa di klinik, doktor pula mengesahkan yang anda mengalami kecederaan ‘whiplash’. Macam tak pernah dengar kan. Apa itu ‘whiplash’? Menurut WebMD, istilah ‘whiplash’ bermaksud kecederaan tengkuk. Secar
With the Road and Transport Department (JPJ) waiting for the official green light to start issuing fines for not using a child car seat, many parents are rushing to purchase a seat to avoid needing to pay the expensive fine. But unfortunately, many are looking to second-hand child seats or hand-me-downs from friends and families. Did you know that these child car seats have an expiry date? Yes, all child car seats have an expiry date or shelf life as we call it. There are many factors contributi
Rear seat entertainment display is a luxury that many of us would perceive as a rich man’s toy. Most of us would have the pleasure of pulling up next to a Toyota Alphard or a Vellfire spy a drop down screen behind the driver’s seat (more often than not playing cartoons) and a collective audience tentatively watching. While rear seat entertainment is rather common as an after market accessory, cars like the Kia Grand Carnival and the Nissan Serena S-Hybrid come with one built-in from the factory.
Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS) has announced their plans to restart campaigns to educate the public on the importance of using rear seat belts. The strategic plan will take place in stages starting from school level to public and private agencies. MIROS chairman Datuk Suret Singh told Bernama that although the rear seat belt regulation was implemented over a decade ago since 2009, the institute discovered that only 11 percent of Malaysian road users wear rear seat belts. Mos
Perodua Myvi Ferrari F8 Spider, McLaren GT, 2018 Perodua Myvi, Lamborghini Huracan, etc. These are some of the finest supercars out there and that's why the Perodua Myvi is so successful. Jokes aside, the Perodua Myvi has been the best-selling car in Malaysia for a while now and Malaysians love it. But every now and again, we do get asked if the Perodua Myvi is a good choice. Well, why don’t we run through the things that make the Myvi such a compelling choice for so many, and talk about some of
Though the child car seat policy was introduced in January 2020, the Road and Transport Department (JPJ) has yet to fully enforce the use of it in private cars so far. According to a report by Bernama, JPJ is currently just waiting for the green light from the Transport Ministry to do so. As we reported late last year, the child car seat or child restraint system (CRS) rule will start effect in January 2020. But, then Transport Minister, Anthony Loke, directed JPJ to implement an advocacy progra
The policy for mandatory child seat usage will soon take effect come January 2020, but the Road Transport Department (JPJ) is going lenient with the annoucement that they will not be taking drastic penalising actions as of yet. Transport Minister Anthony Loke announced at the Dewan Rakyat recently that he has directed the JPJ to hold off penalising drivers who has yet to conform to the child seat policy for at least 6 months. Instead of summonses, drivers will be issued warnings and reminders to
As an advanced driving Instructor, often times I am asked how does one become a better driver? Well, the answer is never so straightforward, because everyone's level of driving varies from one to another. But that doesn't mean you can't take steps to be a better, safer driver. At the most fundamental level, finding the right driving position makes a world of difference. In this column, I will outline six simple steps, in the correct order, to finding the right driving position, no matter what si
By now you would’ve seen the all-new Honda Jazz, which made its world premiere yesterday at the opening of the 2019 Tokyo Motor Show in Japan, where the Jazz is sold as the Fit. The fourth generation Honda Jazz will only go on sale in Japan in February 2020 so details like body dimensions and engine specifications are still unclear, but we do know that in Japan (and Europe), the all-new Honda Jazz will be sold exclusively as a hybrid. It will most likely be a 1.5-litre full hybrid but unlike the
There is a good reason why the Perodua Myvi is Malaysia’s best-selling car, as no other segment rivals can beat its value-for-money proposition. Couple that with its stellar fuel economy and reputation for rock-solid reliability, it’s hard to topple the Myvi as the nation's best-selling car. When it was introduced back in late-2017, it was the first sub-RM60k car to feature Perodua’s ASA ADAS suite, which includes Pre-Collision Warning and Braking, Front Departure Alert, and Pedal Misoperation C

During the daily security briefing, Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Dato’ Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob has clarified that there are no restrictions regarding seating in cars under the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO). “Time and time again I have been repeating this, when travelling in a car there is no ruling that requires one to be seated at the back while the other is in front driving. In fact, if they are from the same household, it is not necessary to wear a face mask in the car, it

The Proton Saga received a facelift in 2019 with a host of updates. On top of that, prices were reduced, starting from RM 32,800 (RM 32,400 without SST) for the Standard MT and RM 39,800 (RM 39,300 without SST) for the Premium AT. One of the most significant changes in the facelift exercise is the new 4-speed automatic transmission, replacing the CVT. Pros and cons Having lived with both the Saga FLX and Saga 2019, the 4-speed automatic is a far better daily companion. The transmission works smo
Have you ever come across kids jumping at the backseat of a car, while you’re stopped at a red light? This is one of my biggest driving pet peeves, people not wearing seatbelts whilst travelling in their cars. We have seen countless times, crashes on the road that have resulted in people getting flung out of their cars. Why? Plain and simple, they weren’t wearing their seatbelts. How can something so intrinsically simple to do become such a widely-ignored habit? Sadly, it’s down to both ignoranc
Over the years of owning your car, the interior would have picked up a fair bit of dirt, in addition to the usual wear and tear. Here’s some quick and low-cost tips on how you can refresh your car’s interior and maximixe your car's value. A good cleaning does wonders First things first. You should give the interior a good cleaning. Take a microfibre cloth soaked in mild soap water and gently clean the plastic surfaces of your car’s interior.

The Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS) has urged the government to ban the sale of car accessories that could pose a fatal risk, especially in the event of a crash. According to Berita Harian, one such item is the dummy buckle, which was originally meant for plus-sized individuals, but has since been misused by people who refuses to buckle up while driving. By inserting the dummy buckle into the seat belt buckle, these drives can avoid the annoying chimes a modern car emits when
The Hyundai Creta is a B-segment SUV aimed at emerging markets. Also known as the Hyundai ix25 in some markets, the Creta is positioned lower (and cheaper) than the same segment but more sophisticated Hyundai Kona. The Creta is also a twin of the Kia Seltos, as both cars share the same platform. Of course, being a B-segment SUV, it also competes against the Proton X50, and in Indonesia, the Mitsubishi Xpander Cross and Honda BR-V as well. We’ve already reported earlier that the Hyundai Creta wil

A research from Brown University has revealed that there is another effective way to reduce Covid-19 infection in cars than just opening all the windows. The trick is to control the airflow in the car by opening just 2 windows to create an air curtain free of virus particles. This new method would be a great help for drivers or even those who rely on taxis or e-hailing rides to get around, especially during this time when Malaysia is experiencing record high numbers of new infections. It is true
This toy is not for those aged 21 and below as it will set you back at least $14,000 to own one. You certainly do not want a 5-year-old ruining your one-of-a-kind Rolls-Royce Cullinan scale model at all. Like all Rolls-Royces, no two models are the exact same. That’s right, this scale model of the Cullinan is entirely customisable and bespoke. Customers can customise everything from which side the driver’s seat should be, right down to the colour of the seat belt. The Rolls-Royce Cullinan scale
For those shopping for a B-segment hatchback, the default option for many Malaysians is the Perodua Myvi. The other alternative is the Proton Iriz, but we’ll get into that later. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at the Perodua Myvi’s pros and cons, as well as the estimated monthly payment to see if it’s the right car for you. Pros and Cons Headlining the Perodua Myvi is its value-for-money preposition. For a car that costs less than RM 53k, the potential buyer does get a fair bit of equ
Senior Minister (Security Cluster) Dato’ Seri Ismail Sabri Yaakob announced that the National Security Council (MKN) has agreed to allow up to 3 people from the same household in a car throughout the rest of the Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO). There is still no restriction on passengers seating in a car even with the update of this CMCO standard operating procedure (SOP). Previously, when CMCO was reinstated in October the SOP regarding travelling via cars were limited to 2 people per
The answer is no, alcohol sanitizers or plain rubbing alcohol might be good products for disinfecting our bodies and household surfaces, but alcohol will damage the material that are used to build the interior of the car. After rubbing hand sanitizer that is largely made up of alcohol on your hands you feel a distinct dryness to your skin. That’s because alcohol dries up anything it comes in contact with. Since our car interiors are made up of materials such as leather, plastics, vinyl, and poly

As a car person, the worst situation we can find our cars in when we return from a holiday is to find the car vandalised or stolen. This Mercedes-AMG GT owner did not have his car stolen but he did return from his 5-day holiday to find his beloved supercar almost completely dismantled. Jay Tranter left his Mercedes-AMG GT in a guarded car park located not far from the Birmingham airport before he left for his 5-day holiday with his girlfriend. The 36-year-old came back from his short holiday to
Unpopular opinion: Seven-seater SUVs are a really bad choice when it comes to moving seven adults. Have you tried climbing into an SUV's third row seats? In a Nissan Serena, you literally step in and out of the car like it's a room. The Nissan Serena you see here is fitted with the optional J Impul styling package, which bumps up the price to RM 149,888. Otherwise, prices are: Highway Star: RM 132,888 Premium Highway Star (Single tone black): RM 142,888 Premium Highway Star (Two-tone colour): RM
