It has taken me a long time to finally stop taking things for granted, especially the fact that I will always be able to count on my father or my grandfather for help with my car if I ever need it.  The plain and simple reality is that I won’t be able to depend on them should I need some fuel, or a tow to the shop, or even a jump start for the car.  That is why I finally have grown up a bit and decided that I need breakdown cover so that I can take care of those kinds of things on my own.
