For long journeys you should think about enough provisions.
If you don't have a suitable bottle opener at hand when taking a break, you can use a simple trick.
Drivers should take breaks more often
, especially on longer journeys
.
And, for example, when you go on holiday, have enough provisions on board, i.e. enough to eat and drink.
Then you save the money at the service area and can grab a soda or apple spritzer much cheaper during the (sometimes more spontaneous) breaks.
But you don't have a
bottle opener
handy?
Then you can use a simple trick in the car: The metal buckle on the
belt
with the rectangular hole in the middle is perfect for opening a bottle with a crown cap, as
24auto.de
describes: "Apply the hole like a normal opener, after press at the top” – and the bottle is already open.
Practical for the break: The "hidden" bottle opener in the car
The "hidden" bottle opener is only suitable for resting.
"Because you have to unbuckle yourself to open a bottle." And even if a passenger is present, the report goes on to say: "Please don't just unbuckle while driving, but look for a parking space and only unbuckle when stationary to open the hidden opener This trick can also be practical when camping – if you are thinking of sparkling water, spritzer or cola, but unfortunately do not have a bottle opener with you.
