In the heat of travel season, it’s important to both prepare your car for a road trip and minimize the risk of a breakdown during your journey.
- Remember to keep an Emergency Supply Kit in your car in case you are stranded. This kit should include things like:
- Jumper Cables
- Flares
- Portable Cell Charger
- Here are some common Car Safety Tips for a Road Trip:
- A full tank of gas will keep the fuel line from freezing in the winter.
- As little as 6 inches of standing water can cause a vehicle to stall or lose control.
- In the event of an emergency; avoid overpasses, bridges, and power lines because they can affect the stability of the roadway.
