It has been far too long since we have had to remind people to pack their patience as they drive to the beach, the Bay or wherever a long weekend may be taking them, but we are pleased to be able to do so again this Memorial Day Weekend. It gives us tremendous happiness to…

Let us begin by noting that we would happily never repair another vehicle here at the shop that was damaged as a result of distracted driving. We see far too much of it. We know far too many families who have had loved ones injured, and yes, killed, as a result of people not paying…

As we finally see more of a steady transition back to in-person learning, it’s reasonable to agree that the sight of so many more buses on the roadways almost seems out of place. It is such a welcome sight in our opinion, and we would like to remind folks that, if your commute has become…
