Tips for Safe and Enjoyable Journey

Here are some guidelines to make confident you and your vehicle are geared up for the trip.
* Before you hit the road, have your vehicle inspected. A basic inspection is not very expensive and will cover the brakes, tires, suspension, lights, cooling system, and other basic drive train components.

* Make sure your tire pressure before you leave on a road trip. Most tires require between 30-32psi.

* Pack an emergency kit with you. A good emergency kit should include a flashlight, a first aid kit, jumper cables, gloves, rope, and tire inflator.

* Always bring extra water. Although you may be traveling on major roads, a flat tire or breakdown can occur miles from the nearest exit.

* If you've never changed a flat tire, perhaps you should try it in the comfort of your own driveway a few days before you head out on your trip.

* While on the road, try to take a 15 minute break every 2 hours.

* Pack plenty of entertainment for children. Travel toys and games can help pass the time.

* Whenever you travel make sure that everyone has proper identification and required documentation.

A road trip can be a fun experience. Follow these tips to make sure it's a safe and enjoyable journey.
