Topic: Preventing flat spots

[blur911]

just keep the insurance on,are you really saving anything,  besides could be a warm winter and no snow, there could some nice driving days out there

It's a few hundred dollars, I do the same every winter.  Of course I usually have to tear something apart on it while it sits so I can't drive it on those nice days anyhow.

I'm having a very hard time not going and tearing the engine out of the Suzy...

[5 Wheel Drive]

When I had my Miata and stored it for the winter, all I did with the tires was inflate them to around 45lbs.  It was parked on the concrete garage floor. I never moved it, once it was parked, that was it 'til Spring.  I never had a problem with flat spots.

I assume my driveway is ok.

Technically not.  The Ontario Court of Appeal ruled about 2 years ago that one's driveway from the dwelling forward to the street is within the public sphere (not exact words) unless gated despite being private property. 

This pertained to a home owner that was sitting in his car in his driveway blaring music and the police were called on a disturbance call.  They nailed him for impaired driving (care and control).  Ridiculous unless you're the neighbour. 

Interesting. Learn something every day. And yes I was thinking about using the driveway to give me room to exit and re-enter the garage with a different path, so I would end up on a different spot of the wheel despite parking in the same spot.

I must admit I am quite annoyed by the obscurity of so many of these laws and rulings.
