Although ramming vehicles into zombies is a good way to take them out you need to remember that the vehicles will take damage from hitting zombies or any other object so it is advised that you refrain from using this tactic unless you have no other alternative.
Try to stay away from zombies whenever possible. A good way to not get their attention is to crouch and move slowly as more often than not they won't be able to see you in their peripheral vision.
Make sure that whenenver you are inside searching a house you remember to close the door as zombies are unable to work doorknobs. Doing this will allow you to relax a little while looking for supplies.
More often than not guns are not the best weapons to use unless they have a suppressor and even then if you miss pulling off a headshot the noise could attract a passing horde of zombies. You will find that having a sturdy melee weapon will serve you better in most circumstances. You may also want to pack a shotgun for emergencies but remember that it will only have a few shots.
Remember that your ability to attack, dodge, run, and such is governed by the amount of stamina you have and as you adventure this will begin to drop. Try to avoid constantly using the same character and rotate between characters so they get a break and can replenish their stamina.
