Beware of brakes

To everyone who drives any type of automobile. I learned a valuable lesson tonight. This is to keep both hands on the wheel. My husband was coming back home from the store when all at once the car breaks locked on him while he was driving. He managed to get in our driveway but then the car caught fire. We were blessed to be able to put the fire out with just the garden hose but it could have been worse. I drive about 30 miles a day to and from work on the expressway with the speed limit of 65 miles per hour. I had just came home from work when he took the car to go to the store. It could have been me driving on the expressway going 65 miles per hour. Only God knows what would have happened. Just remember to always keep both hands on the wheel just in case this happens to you. God bless and keep all of us safe.
