What should you do after your car is jumpstarted?

Once your dead battery is jumpstarted, you should drive around for about 30 minutes. Don't leave your car sitting idle or it won't charge as quickly. After 30 minutes, your car should start again next time and each drive after that will continue to charge it. Here is a good guide to jumpstarting your car.
