It’s the busiest time of the year and it seems like everyone is out on the roads. Here are a few quick tips for navigating this holiday season safely!

Check Your Vehicle’s Maintenence

In the days prior to your trip, go over your vehicle and make sure everything is in working order. Be sure to check the tires, the battery, fluid levels, and all other important safety features. If you find your vehicle needs service, get it done right away!

Plan Ahead

Of course, before any traveling takes place, make sure you have a plan. Whether it be a detailed schedule or a rough estimate of places you need to be, be sure to know where you’ll be going.

This will lessen the stress for traveling, as you know where you need to be and what time. Be sure to get a good night’s rest beforehand if you’re driving, that way you stay alert on the road.

Drive Defensively

There will be plenty of people out on the road this holiday season, so it’s important to always drive defensively. Driving defensively means that the person driving should use techniques and skills to drive as safe as possible.

It is also important to drive with as little distractions as possible. Turn your phone on silent or task the front passenger with phone/ music duty while you drive.
